About this experience
What you'll do:
You will leave your location in Denver, and our first stop will be Red Rocks Park and Amphitheater. The amphitheater was designed by both man and Mother Nature and is known worldwide as one of the favorite places for musical groups to play. Going up the mountain, we will take Clear Creek Canyon from Golden and then stop quickly in either Idaho Springs or Georgetown for a break and a quick coffee.
From there, we will ascend to the Continental Divide. The views remind me of the mountain ranges of the Swiss and French Alps. At the Continental Divide, at 11,990 feet, we will get out of the van for pictures and perhaps take a small hike up the top of a hill for some of the most beautiful, majestic views of the Rocky Mountain Range and its peaks.
Then we are on to Breckenridge, passing by the ski resorts of Arapahoe Basin, which is often open in the early summer. Of course, there are plenty of majestic Mountain Views along the way. The historic mining town of Breckenridge offers great boutique shopping and a free Gondola ride to the Breckenridge Summer Fun Park, where adults and kids can enjoy some of the interesting rides such as a chair lift and zip lines, and much more. We will spend 2 hours in Breckenridge before returning to Denver.
Why we love it for your party:
Incredible views of the mountains with some great stories of Denver and the mining towns along the way
Opportunity to get out for small hikes and explore the area
Enjoy a unique shopping experience at the local stores in Breckenridge
Breckenridge has plenty of breweries and wineries to enjoy, but be aware that alcohol hits you twice as hard or more at nearly 10,000 feet ;)
Free gondola ride up to the fun park where there are a lot of fun rides and a chairlift to take you up higher or have lunch and a beer at 10,000 feet and watch the crowds
