Apex Park

Apex Park provides a popular, accessible foothills experience minutes from downtown Golden. A stream runs alongside a trail in part of the park, and a dense forest provides shady areas on the west end. This park is popular for mountain biking as it offers more technical trails and a steep challenge up Lookout Mountain.

Things to Do

Apex Trail is in the Jefferson County trail system, and the eastern access is in the City of Golden. Enter from County Road 93/Heritage Road just before its merger with US Highway 40/West Colfax Avenue. The trail is 2.3 miles long gaining up to 1,500 feet in elevation. There are exposed steep trails at time with views of Denver and Golden. Biking is one-way on odd numbered days.
