It’s Best in Breck
From the snowy mountain tops to the beautiful summer views, Breckenridge, Colorado is a great place to vacation.
Breck is the best place to travel because they have excellent restaurants, you can travel there all year round and there are many outdoor activities.
First, Breck has lots of good eats. They have restaurants like Fatty’s Pizza and Downstairs at Eric’s. These places serve traditional American food and Eric’s even features an arcade.
My personal favorite is Downstairs at Eric’s. This is because I love playing older video games with my family while eating their delicious double cheese pizza.
If you are looking for more food variety, you can go to Crepes A La Cart or Angel’s Hollow. Crepes A La Cart serves french pastries and Angel’s Hollow has Mexican food. These are just some of the many non-Amerian food options.
Along with having delicious food, you can travel there all year round since there are many things to do in both the summer and winter. In the winter it can be bitter cold, but it is worth it because of the amazing slopes.
When I go down in the winter, I love to ski on Peak 8 since it has the best runs and very accessible gondolas to take you where you need to be.
Speaking of slopes, Breckenridge is known for its remarkable skiing and snowboarding, which is a very popular winter activity to do while staying there. The snow also makes for great sledding, snow tubing and snowmobiling.
Summer activities include ziplining over canyons and mountains, white water rafting, horseback riding and of course the Peak Eight theme park. These are great activities to do as a family, couple or just by yourself!
The only con I have about Breckenridge is that the closest airport is the Eagle County Regional Airport which is 72 miles away. From there, you can rent a car to drive an hour and 15 minutes or you can take a shuttle there.
A positive aspect of the long drive is going through the mountains. Although the drive is long, you get to experience the breathtaking views.
I give this alpine ski resort a five out of five stars because of the quality restaurants, year-round traveling and many activities.
