What to expect

Gilpin County, Colorado packs high-country drama into a compact stretch of the Front Range, where old mining towns meet alpine trailheads. Walk to Yankee Doodle Lake from Rollins Pass Road, climb toward James Peak Lake, or follow the Historic Gilpin Tramway near Central City and Black Hawk. Around Maryland Mountain, forested ridges open to big views that feel unmistakably Colorado.
