Breckenridge is the only town in the world to own a 27-hole golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus. The Bear nine course opened in 1985; the Beaver, the second nine, opened in 1987; and in 2001, the town opened another nine holes designed by Nicklaus. This newest addition to the Breckenridge Golf Club, named Elk nine, offers more elevation change than the Bear and Beaver nines. All sit in the picturesque glacier-sculpted Upper Blue Mountain Valley.
At an elevation of 9,324 feet, golf balls fly farther and straighter than at lower elevations because there is less air resistance. The course has four sets of tees to select the challenge equal to your game. Each set plays to a par 72. To make your golf game even more enjoyable, typical daytime summer temperatures range from 65 to 80 degrees.
