Breckenridge Ice Castle

Posted by Breckenridge Associates Real Estate on December 12th, 2013

This year, the Town of Breckenridge has another awesome winter event to share with locals and visitors. Over the last several weeks, the construction of the Ice Castle in the Tiger Dredge parking lot has been taking shape. Over 20 million pounds of ice will pile up and turn into an Ice Castle worth seeing. The Ice Castle is constructed from snow and ice and it will grow throughout the winter. As the castle grows, tunnels are created and visitors can meander through them. You can also enjoy the towering, brightly lit icicles.
