Visit Frisco Colorado
Frisco is what we like to call the doorstep to the Rockies. The quaint town sits 71 miles west of Denver and is the center of Summit County, Colorado. Prepare to be taken back by the beauty that surrounds you as you near the town of Frisco and witness stunning views of Buffalo Mountain, Mount Royal, and Peak 1 of the Tenmile Range overlooking the large Dillon Reservoir. Frisco attractions include access to the Dillon Reservoir via the Frisco Bay Marina where during the summers visitors can rent paddle boards, canoes, kayaks, fishing boats, pontoon boats, or take a tour on a sailboat!
Frisco, Colorado just made the Wall Street Journal’s list of the “Coolest, Under-the-Radar Ski Towns of the American West” due to its close proximity to Breckenridge, Copper Mountain, Arapahoe Basin, and Keystone. Not only is it near 6 world-class ski resorts, but it is also the access point to tons of hiking and biking trails including Summit County Recpath. The Frisco Adventure Park is a hit with guests and the local community alike as it sits on the Dillon Reservoir and is home to a bike park and trails, disc golf course, a skatepark in the summer and tubing, Nordic skiing and sleigh rides in the winter.
