The Blue River

The Blue River begins just west of the Continental Divide at Quandary Peak and makes its entrance into Breckenridge, right here in the valley of the Peak 9 estates. The Blue River is a Gold Medal fishery, with an abundance of rainbow trout. It is also popular for canoeing and kayaking with whitewaters further downstream of the neighborhoods.

The Trafalgar and Riverwood subdivisions provide elegant riverfront estates that were built so close to the river that you could cast a fishing line from your backyard or soak in a streamside hot tub.
