The Pikes Peak Bike Tours team will take your breath away by first transporting you up the historic and scenic Old Stage Road.

Gold Camp Road is a leisurely descent at a 2% grade on gravel terrain with minimal obstacles and incredible tunnels blown by dynamite dating back to the late 1800s. Experience the beauty of Colorado in its entirety as you peer into the distance breathing in the crisp mountain air. Duration is expected to last 3 to 3 1/2 hours depending on the riders.

À quoi s'attendre

Upper Gold Camp Road

The Gold Camp Road Tunnels were constructed during the 1800s to help support the ongoing Pike’s Peak Gold Rush. Connecting Cripple Creek and Colorado Springs, a railway was laid down on the route that is now Gold Camp Road. Known as the “Short Line,” train service began in 1901, with 200 freight cars used to haul minerals, supplies, and people throughout the area. The supposed haunting of the Gold Camp Road Tunnels has beckoned the curious to investigate for decades, with many urban myths surrounding the “abandoned” looking tunnels. Perhaps the best-known myth about the area relates to the 1988 tunnel collapse and claims that a bus full of school children became stuck and killed during the accident. While there is no record of such an incident occurring, some visitors of the Gold Camp Road Tunnels have claimed to have left the area with tiny handprints on their cars from the spirits of the deceased.

Route supérieure du camp d'or

Les tunnels routiers de Gold Camp ont été construits au cours des années 1800 pour aider à soutenir la ruée vers l'or de Pike's Peak. Reliant Cripple Creek et Colorado Springs, un chemin de fer a été aménagé sur la route qui est maintenant Gold Camp Road. Connu sous le nom de "Short Line", le service ferroviaire a commencé en 1901, avec 200 wagons de marchandises utilisés pour transporter des minéraux, des fournitures et des personnes dans toute la région. La hantise supposée des tunnels routiers de Gold Camp a invité les curieux à enquêter pendant des décennies, avec de nombreux mythes urbains entourant les tunnels à l'aspect "abandonné". Le mythe le plus connu sur la région concerne peut-être l'effondrement du tunnel de 1988 et prétend qu'un bus rempli d'écoliers s'est retrouvé coincé et tué lors de l'accident. Bien qu'il n'y ait aucune trace d'un tel incident, certains visiteurs des tunnels routiers de Gold Camp ont affirmé avoir quitté la zone avec de minuscules empreintes de mains sur leurs voitures des esprits des défunts.

Our guides were fantastic! This was by far the best tour we could find becase: - It was all downhill - The trails are challenging but not too hard (they are wide most of the way) - The guides had water and supplies and were beside us the entire way - You ride all the way from the top of the mountain back to the bike store itself (very convenient)

We took out cross country team to do some altitude training. David and Luke did a fantastic job with our kids. They were able to let the more experienced riders stretch their horizons and the slower more careful riders felt supported too. They were respectful, helpful, and the kids enjoyed every second. Thank you for making our trip memorable.
