Welcome to Golden

 
Located between Lookout Mountain and two beautiful mesas, Golden served as the territorial capitol of Colorado until 1867. Today, Golden remains an inspiring place to live with its rich mining heritage, Old West charm, and magnificent views in every direction. Clear Creek runs through Golden and the surrounding mountains, providing the perfect rugged terrain for hiking, running, and cycling. Golden is also home to many parks and museums, including the Buffalo Bill Museum and Grave and the Colorado Railroad Museum. Downtown Golden is a charming area that offers lots of shopping, restaurants, and bars. And, if you’re in the right spot, you can actually watch kayakers float by right in the center of town.
