When autumn hits Breckenridge, the mountains come alive in shades of gold, amber, and fiery red. Crisp air and fun trails make fall one of the best times to hop on your bike and explore. Whether you’re looking for a mellow riverside cruise or a lung-burning climb rewarded with sweeping views, Breck has a ride for every level. Below are some of our favorite trails to spin through the season before the snow starts to fall.
Like you need a reason to come to Breck anyways. With the gorgeous terrain and a charming town, it’s hard to think of a time that is not good to come. However, weekends can be hectic sometimes and offer challenges that make maximizing fun difficult. What’s the solution? Come on weekdays.
Though most of the country is still experiencing hot heat, mid-August in Breckenridge gets cooler temperatures, a quite mountain town, and of course plenty of drives that allow you to experience the beauty of fall.
