Independence Superchair
On Peak 7, the central peak of Breckenridge's five. The Independence Superchair drops you at the summit ridge — Pioneer is immediately in front of you, wide open, sweeping down to the right toward Swan City which continues the descent.
The classic morning lap. Fresh corduroy, easy rolling rhythm. Best skied the moment the lifts open.
Freedom Superchair
Also on Peak 7, just west of Pioneer. The Freedom Superchair is at the base of Peak 7 — take it from the bottom of Pioneer for an easy lap.
Long and smooth with loads of room to work on carved turns. One of Peak 7's finest.
Mercury Superchair
On Peak 9, the southernmost and most beginner-friendly peak. The Mercury Superchair is accessed from the base area nearest to downtown Breckenridge — about 5 min walk from Main Street.
Quieter Peak 9 run with light tree coverage — ideal for stepping up from green terrain.
Beaver Run Express
On Peak 9's lower mountain, finishing near the Beaver Run Resort area at the base. Very gentle terrain that connects back to the main base village.
Gentle and flowing — a wonderful way to spin out tired legs late in the afternoon.
Kensho Superchair
On Peak 8, accessed via the Kensho Superchair from the base of Peak 8 — a free gondola from town reaches the base. Cimarron faces northwest and holds snow well.
One step up when you're ready to push. Rewards confident intermediates with an adrenaline hit.
The destination
A genuine 1880s gold-mining town that became one of America's most visited ski destinations without losing its Victorian main street. Colorado's most charming ski town for a first-timer.
