A late Spring to early Fall drive to Golden Gate State Park is scenic and worth the trip for auto, motorcycle and bicycle. Note that on nice days, you may experience a lot of bicycle traffic on the two lane road. We frequently enjoy a commute up to Gilpin county and through the state park. There are opportunities to see and experience various wildlife in the area. The road can get crowded. There is opportunity for fishing, picture taking, hiking and soaking up the sun. During the week (M-Th) may be your best bet for the lighter traffic.
