Typically less crowded, the Peak 7 area is the perfect compliment to some of Breckenridge's steeper terrain on Peaks 8 & 10.

Breckenridge BreckConnect Gondola 
The BreckConnect has made accessibility between the town and mountain seamless. The gondola enables the spirit of the town to ascend to the mountain, and vice versa.
Breckenridge’s brand new Gondola, aptly named the BreckConnect, opened in January of 2007. Starting at the Breckenridge Transportation Center, the Gondola has terminals at both the Peak 7 and Peak 8 base areas, as well as a mid-station located in the Shock Hill Neighborhood. With a 10 minute ride time, the BreckConnect Gondola provides an exceptional transportation experience for skiers, riders and visitors, while greatly reducing the need for bussed transportation between the town and the Breckenridge Ski Resort.
The Breckenridge Gondola allows skiers and snowboarders to bring their gear inside its spacious 8-passenger Gondola cabins, rather than having to use exterior mounted carriers. The Gondola has a carrying capacity of up to 3,000 passengers per hour. Its path travels through a remarkably scenic wildlife habitat area known as Cucumber Gulch en route to the ski area. Visitors will find the BreckConnect Gondola serves as an integral link between the town’s skier parking lots and the Breckenridge Ski Resort.
