Snowmobiling near Breckenridge, CO: Heated Tracked Snow UTV Tours
Experience the Thrill of Snowmobiling near Breckenridge
Snowmobile Tours near Breckenridge in Heated, Fully-Enclosed Snow UTVs
Most snowmobile tours around Breckenridge put you on an open sled at 11,000 feet in January. Ours puts your whole group inside a tracked Polaris snow UTV with a heated cab, a full safety cage and seatbelts, and sends you up the same kind of high-country trails. You drive it like a car, you follow your guide, and you can do the whole thing in jeans and a hoodie.
Tracks instead of tires mean the machine goes everywhere a snowmobile goes: deep powder, steep climbs, the ridge with the view. The heated cab means the people who usually sit out a snowmobile day (little kids, grandparents, anyone who hates being cold) come along and have the best day of the trip. That’s why families from Breckenridge, Frisco, Copper and Keystone make the 45-minute drive over to Leadville for their snow day, and why our winter tours are the warm alternative to Breckenridge ATV tours once the snow flies.
What to expect:
Your own machine, your own group. We never put two groups in one UTV. Up to 5 guests and 700 lb per machine.
You drive, our guide leads. Follow your guide’s machine up the mountain and stop wherever the view demands it.
2 hours on the snow. Tours leave at 9am, 12pm and 3pm, every day of the year. Arrive 30 minutes early to check in.
Kids ride along. Anyone 42" or taller rides as a passenger. No lap infants. Drivers need to be 21+ with a valid driver’s license.
Nothing to rent, nothing to gear up. Helmets are free, the cab is heated, and you won’t need a snowsuit, boots or goggles.
Your music, your photos. Every machine has JBL Bluetooth speakers, and your guide takes photos for you at the stops, free.
Where we’re located and what the area is like:
45 minutes from Breckenridge. Hwy 9 to Frisco, I-70 to Copper Mountain, then Hwy 91 over Fremont Pass into Leadville. The drive is a Continental Divide tour on its own.

Terrain for every nerve. Gentle snow-covered roads for first-timers, steeper climbs for the thrill-seekers.

You should ask your Doctor. It is an off-road tour with bumps. During the Winter, the tour is much smoother while traveling over snow. As far as medical problems, we will sometimes be out of cell coverage in the backcountry away from where any ambulance can get to. If someone had a medical emergency we would have to self rescue (if possible) and depending on the season the hospital could be +30mins away. Please ask your Doctor for decision-making advice.
No but….. Is it customary to? Yes. In this industry. Times are hard, we understand. It takes all of us a tremendous amount of work to keep our tour prices low, the lowest in CO.

It depends, wild animals are shy and would much rather avoid humans. We see eagles, mountains goats, picas, fox and moose sometimes. If we encounter an animal on tour we will give it plenty of space and leave them alone in order to keep them wild, and you from getting hurt.
Sure! Our UTVs have a little pick-up truck bed in the rear.

Snowmobile Tours in Breckenridge vs. Our Snow UTV Tours
Why Families Near Breckenridge Pick the Heated Cab
A typical Breckenridge snowmobile tour means one or two riders per sled, drivers somewhere between 15 and 18 and up with a license, little kids riding only as passengers, a snowsuit and boots rented at the outpost, and a price per rider that starts around $250. Our version of snowmobiling in Colorado flips most of that: a heated, enclosed tracked UTV with 2 to 5 seats, anyone 42″ and up riding along, street clothes and a free helmet, and one price per machine, from $275 for up to 5 people. The trail is different too. Instead of the Swan River Valley or Fremont Pass, you climb to 12,000 feet above Leadville, past the gold mines and the ghost town, with Mt. Elbert and Mt. Massive filling the windshield.
Go Everywhere a Snowmobile Can, Then Warm Up Instead of Thaw Out
Tracks give the machine traction a wheel never has. Steep climbs, deep powder, drifted roads up to the old mines: the UTV handles all of it, and you get the view at the top without the wind at the top. On the way back down you’re already warm.
Come see why guests from Breckenridge keep choosing the heated version. Book your winter adventure today and create memories that will last a lifetime!
