Golden - Founded during the gold rush of 1859, Golden is nestled in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, only fifteen minutes from Denver. Although the city is minutes from Denver, it has the feel of being a million miles away. Golden offers cultural and adventure attractions including wine tasting, shopping in local boutiques, kayaking, hiking and there’s always the Coors brewery. With a population of 17,159, Golden feels like home, a million miles away.
