We have compiled some ideas and a weekend bachelor/ette party itinerary to kickstart your fun. Be sure to check out our earlier blog for how to plan your Breckenridge Bachelor/ette weekend and let’s get the celebrations started!
Day 1: Check out Town
Get settled at your lodging, then head into town for dinner and drinks.
1.Stop at Quandary Tequila Bistro for drinks along the Maggie Pond and views of Breckenridge Ski Resort and mountains. Soak up the sun during happy hour from 3-5 pm and enjoy discounted margaritas, cocktails, beer, and wine, as well as appetizers from chips and salsa to sesame seared ahi.
2. Head to Sancho Tacos for the best Mexican in Breckenridge. Sancho’s menu includes a variety of taco options, cocktails, chips, guacamole, and salsas. Toast to your friend with the mini trio appetizer and a spicy mango margarita.
3. End the night at RMU and enjoy drinks and live music. RMU stands for Rocky Mountain Underground and is a ski manufacturer, as well as a bar with food options. Hang out, enjoy a DJ set or band, and celebrate with your crew!
Day 2: Adventure
Grab your crew and drive just one hour and 15 minutes to Buena Vista for whitewater rafting on the Arkansas River, as well as other adventure activities. Book a full day multi-adventure package and spend the day adventuring through the Rockies with your crew. For bachelor or bachelorette parties in Breckenridge, we recommend the Numbers Rafting and Via Ferrata trip that combines two high adrenaline experiences everyone will be excited about.
1.Climb high into the cliffside above our Buena Vista outpost on our exciting Granite Via Ferrata course. This course is a unique assisted climbing experience, using teamwork to traverse across the mountainside. You will even get to fly on several ziplines and experience Colorado’s highest freefall! This flight line will get your heart-pounding as you stand on the 78-foot-tall edge within the Rocky Mountains.
2. Raft the Numbers section of the Arkansas River with your group. This continuous section of whitewater will keep your heartrate up as you paddle through sections of class IV rapids. The scenery on the Arkansas River is unparalleled and will keep your group inspired the entire way. If your group is looking for another outdoor activity, check out the best hiking around Breckenridge.
3. Dry off and head to Outer Range Brewery for a drink after your full day of adventure. This Frisco brewery is on the way back to Breckenridge and is an essential stop for mountain vibes. With over 30 different outer range beers on tap, every beer drinker in your group will find something to enjoy.
4. After you have showered and changed, head back into the town of Breckenridge and enjoy a nice dinner with your group. Ember offers a full menu of upscale American cuisine, with a complimentary cocktail menu, and the patio hosts sunny and shaded seating options.
5. After dinner, check out the Gold Pan Saloon for dancing. This bar is both fun and historic, as it originated in 1879 during the Gold Rush. The Gold Pan also has a full menu for anyone in your party hungry for a late-night snack.
Day 3: Relax and Recharge
The last day of your weekend celebrations calls for relaxing and hanging out with your crew.
