Breckenridge recommendations

[HuskerPAC]

Heading to Breckenridge this Thursday-Tuesday with the family (wife, 6 year old, 4 year old, and newborn). First time visiting, staying right off of Main Street. Any places we need to hit? Easy hikes with the kids? Best restaurant recommendations?

My suggestion would be just walk main street. That's where literally everything to do is and it's really not that bad of a walk from one end to the other

Download AllTrails, read the recent reviews for trail conditions and pick whatever fits you best. It’ll have trails of all difficulty levels

Yea, dont forget a $300 per day lift ticket plus paying for parking and spending $19 on a soggy cheeseburger. I've actually never skiied Breck, I'm more of a A-basin type of fella. Thats not so affordable anymore either. Thinking about switching up and going to the kiddie hill otherwise known as Snowy Range, like all good western nebraskans. Sorry to Hi-Jack the thread, OP. Breckinridge area is really nice in the summer, I'm sure there will still be fun stuff to do.

I just did a day trip there with my 7 and 5 year old boys. There’s a very short hike to see a big Troll statue that they thought was pretty cool. We then did the alpine slide and coaster which were also big hits.

We took the kids to Loveland Ski Area last year. Not a bad mountain and you can usually get a pretty good deal on their 4-pack for lift tickets.

Casa Bonita is within striking distance.

$19 for a cheeseburger? That’s cheap and always have to buy the lift passes at the end of the season for next year or in the summer for the best discounts.

Would second this. Can’t remember what it’s called but the bagel shop off main is pretty good.

I went fly fishing just south of Hoosier pass. Great for hiking if you're ok walking through tall reeds and stepping into waist deep holes.
