Colorado's Longest Historic District

Main Street, Breckenridge

Breckenridge was founded as a gold mining camp in 1859 and its Victorian-era buildings still line Main Street today — now home to over 100 restaurants, craft breweries, boutiques, and galleries in a walkable, lively downtown.

The après-ski scene here is Colorado's best — multiple breweries, rooftop bars, and restaurants that stay packed from 3pm through midnight during ski season. In summer, the same Main Street hosts outdoor concerts, art festivals, and a farmers market.
