Things To Do
Golden Gate Canyon State Park
One of our favorite places to hike! See "FAQ's" for more hiking recommendations.
New Terrain Brewing Company
With tons of outdoor seating at a brewery, the only thing with more variety than the great beer selection are the dogs.
Golden Diner
Open for breakfast and lunch, this diner is a favorite restaurant in Golden.
Pangea Coffee Roasters
It's dinosaur themed! It's just a window where you order outside, but there is outdoor seating if needed. A go-to move is to order here then walk around the nearby Clear Creek pathways that follow the river.
Mountain Toad Brewing
A fun brewery close to downtown Golden with great beers and food trucks on rotation.
Lookout Mountain Road
Hike up to the top of Lookout Mountain on Chimney Gulch trail if you're up to the challenge, or enjoy a much more scenic drive to the top. Tons of amazing views of Golden, Denver, and Clear Creek Canyon.
