Daniel And Jenny's Golden Guidebook
Brewery
Great brewery with food trucks and music Thursday nights that you can hike to from our house.
Just a hike away, New Terrain is probably the best brewery and hang in Golden. Live music on Thursday nights and almost always two food trucks. Hike there via north table or easy drive. Note it can get crowded on popular nights.

A great trail West of Golden that is about a 12 mile loop. On weekends odd days are for hiking and even days for bikers. Beautiful variety of views. This is usually a much less crowded trail than others in Golden. The Ralph Schell trailhead is the closest and avoid a big climb to the main trail that the Clear Creek Trail head has.
