Wakefield Trailhead Temporary Closure

To protect the surrounding natural environment, reduce traffic congestion, and ensure a seamless visit during peak leaf-peeping season, the Town of Breckenridge is implementing a temporary seasonal shuttle service for Aspen Alley.

From September 12 through October 3rd, general vehicle parking at the Wakefield Trailhead will be fully closed to public parking.

The Wakefield lot will remain accessible only for two designated ADA-compliant spaces.
