Stag and hens planning the ultimate pre-wedding trip for lovers of the great outdoors are being encouraged to choose Breckenridge, the Rocky Mountain town situated in the heart of Colorado. The elevated mountain town, two hours west of Denver, makes it the ideal location for those looking for more than just a tipple-filled stag or hen do.
Whether visitors are planning to enjoy a round at the only Jack Nicklaus-designed municipal golf course in the world, a tipple at Breckenridge's home-made rum, vodka and beer distillery or clear their head's with a refreshing hike, the stunning town offers nature and outdoor lover enthusiasts the opportunity to re-connect with their inner-self and with their closest friends before embarking on their life-long journey.
Experience Made-In-Breck Vodka And Bourbon
Breckenridge's 4,000 square foot distillery is the perfect place to sample award-winning home-made bourbon and vodka. Visitors will get the opportunity to watch as they mash, ferment, and distil award-winning alcohol such as spiced rum, bitters and season fruit brandy. For those wanting the VIP treatment, guests can book themselves in for the 'VIP Private Tour of Breckenridge Distillery' and enjoy tastings from products that are still aging and have not yet been released, such as Port Wine Finished Bourbon and Single Malt Whiskey.
