Ten Mile Station: A Culinary Peak on Breckenridge's Slopes
Elevated dining and stunning views await at this Peak 9 restaurant, a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort.
Ten Mile Station, perched at 10,200 feet on Peak 9 of Breckenridge Ski Resort, offers a unique blend of culinary delight and stunning alpine scenery. This restaurant is more than just a place to grab a bite; it's an experience that embodies the spirit of the Colorado Rockies. During the winter months, Ten Mile Station functions as a cozy and inviting ski lodge. Skiers and snowboarders can warm up by the fire, enjoy hearty meals, and take in panoramic views of the surrounding slopes. The restaurant's architecture blends contemporary elements with the rustic charm of late 1800s-era mining buildings, creating a unique and memorable atmosphere. In the summer, Ten Mile Station transforms into a popular wedding venue. The expansive patio, Breckenridge's largest on-mountain, provides a breathtaking backdrop for ceremonies and receptions. Manicured flower gardens add a touch of elegance to the rugged mountain landscape. The interior space, with its blend of modern industrial design and cozy wood materials, can accommodate up to 200 guests. Ten Mile Station's name is derived from its location within the Ten Mile Range. This range got its name in the early 1860s when prospectors heading west were told to travel ten miles and ten peaks north of Breckenridge to find the canyon leading to Leadville. Today, Ten Mile Station stands as a testament to Breckenridge's rich history and its enduring appeal as a world-class mountain destination.
