Sapphire point overlook is a beautiful, accessible location outside of Breckenridge + Frisco. if you’re looking for a spot with beautiful views, easy parking, and no real hiking required, this is your spot!

The overlook is a looped trail that is less than a mile but has a great range of spots to shoot…especially if you don’t mind a little rock scrambling 😉
