Homes in Golden, Colorado
Golden is located just 15 minutes west of downtown Denver on the banks of Clear Creek and nestled between the foothills of the Rocky Mountains and two scenic mesas. The Golden City was the capital of the Colorado Territory in 1862. The beautiful town is a walkable paradise with more than 50 historic buildings, shops, restaurants, breweries, outdoor recreation, community events, and several parks.
Golden boasts 8,000 acres of open space and over 24 miles of trails for biking, hiking, and strolling. The Clear Creek Whitewater Rafting Park is one of the city’s most popular attractions and was built strictly for recreational kayaking and canoeing in Clear Creek. The park itself has hosted several festivals and sporting events.
Golden is home to the Coors Brewing Company, the largest single-site brewery in the world and the second largest producing brewer in the U.S. People can once again enjoy guided tours of this facility following a two-year hiatus caused by the pandemic. There are also several craft breweries in the town.
Golden hosts a variety of annual events each year, including bike races, holiday celebrations, the Golden Farmers Market, the Golden Fine Arts Festival, a bluegrass music and beer festival, and the local favorite, Buffalo Bill Days.
