Snowmobile Tours in Breckenridge Colordao

By: Ben Kelly

If you're seeking to explore more than just the ski slopes on your next winter getaway to Breckenridge, Colorado, consider booking a snowmobile tour. Breckenridge snowmobiling provides an adventurous escape into the heart of the Rocky Mountain wilderness, treating guests to dazzling views and non-stop opportunities to play in the area's deepest powder-filled bowls and high alpine meadows.

Local snowmobile tours travel as high as 12,500 feet atop of the Continental Divide, offering guests a new perspective on the spectacular mountain scenery that surrounds them. Each tour begins with a brief overview of your snowmobile's operation and handling, followed by a short ride down a trail system that connects with an open practice area. Here, guests are invited to better acquaint themselves with driving their snowmobiles before tackling the more challenging terrain that lies ahead.

After the practice session is complete, guides pair riding parties into smaller groups according to the pace of ride their members are seeking. The tour then begins to climb and weave through wooded terrain on a trail system that meets the wide open terrain of the Continental Divide. Upon leaving the timberline below, adventurous guests are invited to open up their throttles and bank turns off of the surrounding mountainsides, while those seeking a more relaxed ride can take it easy and appreciate the amphitheatre of 14,000 foot peaks towering above them.

As riding parties reach Chicago Ridge, located 12,500 feet above sea level on the Continental Divide, snowmobilers are invited to break for pictures with postcard-like scenery providing the backdrop. The tour then descends back into high alpine terrain below the ridge for some powder riding before re-connecting with a trail system that takes guests through towering spruce and lodgepole forests. Along the way, guides may offer the opportunity to break for hot chocolate at one of the historic miners' cabins that remain intact along the lower elevations of Fremont Pass.

Snowmobile tours are an ideal non-ski activity for individual, families, friends and corporate retreats because unlike skiing and snowboarding, they require no previous experience for everyone to remain a part of the group. Complimentary transportation is available to and from the local snowmobile base camps free of charge. Pick ups are available at nearly all Breckenridge lodging properties. Helmets, snowsuits and boots are provided free of charge by local snowmobiling vendors. Guests are advised to bring their ski goggles and sunglasses with them for eye protection and a warm pair of mittens or gloves.

Whether you're an experienced rider seeking access to the most adventurous terrain the Colorado Rockies have to offer, or a first time snowmobiler craving a scenic tour through the backcountry, a Breckenridge snowmobiling tour is sure to be the highlight of your winter getaway.
