Real estate in Breckenridge may be just the magical place for family members of all ages to play together along the Breckenridge Nordic Trail System, awe-inspiring terrain nestled between the Tenmile Range and the Continental Divide. Exceptional Breckenridge CO real estate near the slopes of Peak 6, Peak 8, and Peak 8 as well as in the Shock Hill area include Crystal Peak Lodge and Grand Lodge, One Ski Hill Place, The Shock Hill Lodge & Spa, and Pristine Villaggio.
November 14, 15 and 16 are the days to preview Summit County Colorado vacation real estate and to pick up new and used ski gear “Nordic, back-country, and telemark equipment” at the Breckenridge Nordic Center. Located at 1200 Ski Hill Road near some of the above exclusive new Breckenridge real estate, the annual event is a community tradition for residents of the Victorian mining Town of Breckenridge.
As Breckenridge Resort improves and grows, so has the Master Development Plan for the Nordic Center. Thirty-two kilometers of ski trails meander through spruce forest and open meadows along with 16 kilometers of scenic snowshoe trails only a mile from downtown along the free shuttle route. Additionally, the BreckConnect Gondola runs from the free skier parking lots, accessing the Breckenridge Nordic Trail System and eventually the new Nordic World Trails on Peak 6. A new skier bridge and two Nordic skier tunnels allow a continuous looped trail system with no road crossings.
Lately the Nordic Center began rolling the terrain and anticipates that after the next good snowstorm it will be able to provide skate lines in the teaching and training areas. Pretty soon the stove will be cranked up in the warming huts at Kathy’s Viewpoint and Hallelujah Hut and skiers can glide over manicured snow with scenic vistas on all sides, exploring the expanded trails on Peak 7 in the White River National Forest.
Participants in the sport enjoy a casual and friendly atmosphere. It is easy to learn and lots of fun. Ski lessons help everyone to get it right from the beginning and progress faster. Lesson, rental, and trail pass packages are affordable. Improvement is rapid for those who take advantage of expert guidance offered by ski instructors certified by the Canadian Association of Nordic Ski Instructors (CANS) or Professional Ski Instructors of America (PSIA). Children start skiing by age four and develop the physique, coordination, stamina, agility, social skills, and a sense of accomplishment. When heading to the hills, it is best bring hats, gloves, sunglasses, and layers of clothing to accommodate the weather and body heat generated by the workout.
Next week (Nov. 21-23) there will be a ski swap at our Frisco Nordic Center. The Annual Nordic ski Swap benefits the Summit Nordic Ski Club. Twenty percent of all sales will be donated to the SNC, a nonprofit organization that assists junior Nordic skiers.
