Getting around
How the five peaks connect
Breck's five peaks sit in a line, with Peak 10 in the south and Peak 6 in the north. You can ski and ride between all of them, but some connections are quicker than others, and crossing the whole resort takes a while.
The rule of thumb is to keep moving in one direction. Going from Peak 9 to Peak 6 and back is a full day. Going back and forth all morning will waste most of it.

Lost Horizon
The way back.
Lost Horizon takes you back down toward the Zendo Chair and Peak 7 at the end of the day. Allow plenty of time, because Peak 6 is a long way from town.

Quick tip
Ski & snowboard rental
Book online before you arrive and pick your gear up in town the evening before. The morning rush at the base shops can eat your first hour, and booking ahead can be cheaper.
Quick tip
Lift tickets & the Epic Pass
Breck is on the Epic Pass. Buying a ticket at the window on the day is the most expensive way up the hill, so buy ahead online or look at an Epic Day Pass if you're here for a few days.
