Fourmile Canyon (Boulder Canyon to Poorman)

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.

Gold Hill General Store

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.

Lee Hill Drive Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Lee Hill Drive is a popular and challenging climb that connects the intersection of Lee Hill with Olde Stage just outside of North Boulder, and Lefthand Canyon. The backside of Lee Hill (the Lefthand Canyon side) is a little nicer for climbing because there is less traffic than on the Boulder side where there is no shoulder on a series of initial switchbacks. Regardless of which way you go up Lee Hill, coming down the 1,400 foot climb is a real treat after the challenging journey up!

Wonderland Lake

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

This nice little cut through takes you past the picturesque Wonderland Lake on a smooth, finely crushed gravel path. This is a popular spot with walkers, joggers, and fishers so just be aware as you ride through.
