Gold Hill General Store

Highlight • Cafe

A general store frozen in time, in a tiny gold mining village. Great stop to refuel after riding the amazing gravel roads to get here. Make sure you check they're open.

Fourmile Canyon (Boulder Canyon to Poorman)

Highlight (Segment) • Canyon

Fourmile Canyon Road is a popular cycling spot that connects Boulder Canyon all the way up to the "ghost town" of Gold Hill via Gold Run Road, Gold Hill Road, and the Peak to Peak Highway. This particular section of Fourmile is from Boulder Canyon to Poorman Hill Road, another popular gravel road that connects to Sunshine Canyon.

Chapman Drive Trailhead

Highlight • Trail

Chapman Drive Trail is a great ride for a gentle ascent in peaceful surroundings. The trail is a fire track, so it's traffic free but still fairly well maintained making it easy for riding. You can ride it to Realization Point and beyond, too.

Chapman Drive Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

it's a tough climb specially when the soil is a bit wet and soft. I absolutely prefer this climb over flagstaff though because ZERO cars!
