4 Perfect Days - Couples

Day 1
Morning	Grab an apple cinnamon bagel and coffee from Swiss Haven along the riverwalk. Then, listen to the sounds of the trail and the creak of saddle leather as you experience the splendor of the Colorado high country by horseback. Ride through spruce forests and lush meadows. Breckenridge Stables offers up the Breckenridge Trail, 90 minutes of spectacular scenery.
Day	An active morning in Breckenridge leads to one thing: a good appetite! Swing by Giampietros, on the corner of Lincoln & Main, for New York-style pizza by the slice, or for a healthier alternative, stop by Euro Deli just a few doors down on Lincoln Avenue. Then, get out and enjoy the great outdoors. Breckenridge offers over 40 miles of paved bike trails, perfect for bikes or roller blades. Great Adventure Sports, located in the City Market shopping center (and along the bike path), can provide you with all your gear and rental needs. Should an afternoon shower dampen your plans, take a raincheck and head to Blue Sage Spa for a relaxing couples massage, located on Main Street.
Evening	The Breckenridge Brewery, at the south end of Main Street, is one of the local's favorite spots. Watch as award-winning beers are handcrafted by the brewers or dine on excellent pub fare at reasonable prices. After dinner, live it up a little and head a few doors down to Burke & Rileys for a true-poured Guinness. It's one of the most down-to-earth, friendly watering holes around. Whether sitting outside huddled around the fire pit or stewing among the warm, rich mahogany of the interior, you're sure to meet a few locals, or perhaps even the owners!
Day 2
Morning	Don't miss Daylight Donuts 'Daylight Special' on the north end of Main Street to jump start your second day in Breckenridge - eggs, bacon and a giant pancake - all for $2.79! Then, spend the morning exploring all that Breckenridge has to offer. Wander the streets of this Victorian town for fabulous shopping; Big City Blues and Canary in a Clothesmine are trendy clothing boutiques, while Milagros of Colorado features handmade soaps; all worthy of note.
Day	Have an early lunch on the patio at Blue River Bistro where onion straws are the hot ticket as an appetizer, followed by Penne with Rock Shrimp. Bring your Chaco's, because a trip to Breckenridge is not complete without rafting one of Colorado's most exciting attractions, Brown's Canyon. This river trip is great for both first timers and experienced rafters, It has just the right amount of exciting whitewater with scenic views of 14,000-foot peaks and granite canyon walls.
Evening	Take a seat at Mountain Flying Fish's sushi bar for a most impressive dining experience above 9600 feet. The House Special roll is a must-try. Make your way over to Ridge Street for an evening of LIVE theatre. With more than 32 years of award-winning performances, from Shakespeare to today's most well-known playwrights, the Backstage Theatre offers shows designed for all ages and interests. After the theatre, stop by The Crown on Main Street for a relaxing nightcap featuring the Ghiradelli Martini.
Day 3
Morning	Rise and shine with Pecan Cinnamon Raisin French Toast or Huevos Rancheros at the Blue Moose, voted "Best Breakfast in Summit County." After your early rise, head out to one of the favorite hiking trails, Mohawk Lakes. Stunning scenery, historic mine ruins and a moderate level of difficulty make this hike suitable for all ages and abilities and a favorite with locals.
Day	Offering the finest seasonal and regional foods prepared with the freshest ingredients, lunch on the patio at the award-winning Relish, in the Blue River Plaza is a must. Then, sit back and relax as you are escorted through the high country on a hummer tour. Travel above treeline to the highest trails in the Rocky Mountains as you're treated to gorgeous views, see fields of wildflowers, and occasional mountain goats, deer or elk.
Evening	Take an early evening carriage ride through town and end up at Steak & Rib where steaks and ribs are prime, hence the name, but the Crab Filet rivals the Chipolte Stuffed Shrimp as the locals favorite. If you're up for a night on the town, you can usually find local bands performing at Sherpa & Yetis, or head north on Main Street where you'll find Napper Tandys - Breck's happening after hours hot spot.
Day 4
Morning	Grab a scrumptious chocolate chip muffin from Clints Coffehouse and make your way to Carter Park, where four free tennis courts await those up for the challenge. Should tennis not be your strong suit, there's sure to be a pick-up game of volleyball, soccer or ultimate frisbee happening.
Day	Spend your afternoon on the links of our 27-hole Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course. Be sure and call ahead to reserve your tee-time prior to your arrival in Breckenridge. Golfing not your style? Take a historic walking tour, or satisfy your sweet tooth with a treat from Mary's Mountain Cookies and you'll be all set for an afternoon of people watching in the Blue River Plaza. Catch free afternoon entertainment there on Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons throughout the summer.
Evening	Hungry, but don't want to go out? Have Gourmet Cabby deliver fare directly to your door. After you've had your fix, finish off your Breckenridge experience with a cocktail or latte at The Crown - a cozy little atmosphere with comfy couches and board games.
