Minnie Mine Loop

Minnie Mine Loop

This short and easy trail is perfect for families! We love going all year but fall is particularly beautiful.

Minnie Mine Loop

Location: Breckenridge, CO

Distance: 1.5 miles

Style: Loop

Level of Difficulty: Easy Peasy

Elevation Change: 209 ft

Terrain: The trail is flat and wide enough for two with a gradual incline. It gets rocky in some parts but nothing extreme - my toddlers can hike it solo. It’s mostly covered with some unshaded areas, making it great for warmer days.

What to See: This is a great trail for autumn leaf peeping! There are beautiful views of Breckenridge Resort. Squirrels, birds & chipmunks galore. Multiple opportunities to see historic mine and dredge ruins.

Tips:

  • There is a small parking lot at the trailhead but no bathroom.

  • Popular for mountain bikers so be aware of your surroundings.

  • Cell signal is available

  • This loop deviates from the marked Minnie Mine Trail, it merges with the X10U8 trail at the end. I have attached a picture showing where it diverts. I used my all trails app to stay on course!

  • Please remember to Leave No Trace, this includes picking up & removing dog poop 💩
