Okay, so this spot is just outside of Breckenridge in Frisco, Colorado along the epic I-70. I just had to share this spot because it's where my husband and I eloped in Colorado! It can't get more romantic than that, right? Minutes away from downtown Breckenridge is this outstanding hike. Towering mountains, wildflower-filled meadows, majestical spruce forests, and old mines and cabins are just what you'll see on this romantic hike! You'll hike under three miles to the breathtaking cabins in the wilderness and back!

I am bias to this location, of course. However, after months of searching, I stumbled upon this trail that had the exact backdrops we were looking for! At first, you start out in a beautiful open field with epic mountain views, then you journey through an old spruce forest until you reach the most beautiful gulch lined with old cabins. I promise you won't regret this choice! It was even easy for a few of our family members to hike (even our grandparents!)
