Three Awesome Family Activities in Breckenridge
Breckenridge Mountain Coaster
If the thrill of speed and adrenaline coursing through you as you yell “WooooooHoooo” sounds like a good time, The GoldRunner Alpine Coaster was made for you! Ride alone or with a partner. One unique thing about this mountain coaster is that YOU control your speed as you take on hairpin curves and twists. Your family will love racing down the mountain on an elevated roller coaster track. Your family will never forget taking this scenic route to the mountain.
However, they do have some height requirements for safety reasons. Drivers (the ones in control of the speed) must be at least 54 inches tall. While riders must be 38 inches tall. Riders have the option to ride along with a driver that is at least 16 years old and a head taller than them. If you and your crew meet those requirements, it’s go time for this exciting family activity in Breckenridge!
Mountain Top Children’s Museum
Children are the future! That’s why Mountain Top Children’s Museum is about providing children an environment that builds them and allows them to embrace who they are while acquiring the skills they need to lead us in the future. Hoping to inspire creativity, curiosity, and ingenuity, this community resource was designed from the concept that children learn through play. Their interactive exhibits and educational programming that nurture relationships with the world around them will entertain your Breckenridge family and make you excited about learning activities!
Some of the fantastic exhibits to explore include the Mountain Top Medical center. A play area designed to teach hands-on how emergency medical services are provided in the mountains. Also, check out the Rocky Mountain Wildlife exhibit. You can fish, play and tell the story of the animals who live in the Rockies with puppets. All of these fun Breckenridge family activities aim to teach and help our little ones understand the beautiful place they live.
