This place is very close to peak 7, where my husband and I were staying on our vacation. We decided to go snowshoeing and chose the closest place. Prices were very reasonable ($30-ish per person?). We decided to do the trails on our own (without a guide) and there were many levels of difficulty and distance to choose from. We... More

We had a guide Sarah who was so fun, knowledgable and really loves her job! The views were excellent and the trail was easy for the moderate athlete.

Lots to do at the Nordic Center! Recently visited with our 5, 8 , and 10 y/o. They quickly fit us with cross country skis - had them in every size. They gave us a brief refresher (it had been a while). Trails were easy to follow. When my 5 y/o tired out they had a sled my husband hooked... More

The x-country trails are wonderfully groomed and there are all levels of trails from which to choose -- easy to difficult. The fees are very reasonable and there are numerous trails.

There are two Nordic Centers in Breckenridge. It can be confusing. One is known as the Breckenridge Gold Run Nordic Center and is just off Highway 9 outside of town. It is a great spot with a variety of xc trails and snowshoe trails to choose from. The staff is super helpful with rentals and use of maps as well... More

Being southerners with no ski experience, we were looking for something with a low risk of injury. We decided to try snow shoeing and came across the Breck Nordic Center which offered equipment rentals and easy access to trails. We took a shuttle from Denver (Colorado Mountain Express) and were dropped off right at the Nordic Center. For only $38... More

The Nordic center has groomed trails for snowshoeing and cross country skiing. Must purchase a ticket to use trails. Bus service drops you close or take gondola and a very short hike to get there.

The nordic center staff is friendly, and it is convenient to town. It is also, as others have mentioned, full of Mcmansions. I would think that he town fathers and mothers would start to think about what they want their town to look like in the next few years. I am not a tree hugger, but the development is off-putting...

We really enjoyed skiing at Breckenridge Nordic Center. We spent three of our 5 skiing days there. We saw beautiful vistas from the runs across Ski Hill Rd, hard work to get ghere, but worth it. We saw wildlife, including a fox in Cucumber Gulch, and some amazing homes along Troll Forest. Most of the runs were easy to moderate,... More

Wonderful facility and very helpful staff. It is located close to downtown Breckenridge, but you feel like you are miles from town in a beautiful setting. We had a awesome teacher for cross country lessons as it was the first time my wife and I and our 3 teenagers had tried cross country skate skiing. I highly recommend it.
