The hardest part of planning a trip to Colorado is choosing where to go. We believe the choice is Clear: Clear Creek County. Located in the heart of Colorado, just minutes west of Denver on I-70, Clear Creek County, and the mountain communities of Idaho Springs, Empire, Georgetown and Silver Plume are the perfect places to experience all that the Rocky Mountains have to offer. 

You can ski on our world-class slopes, go back in time on our historic narrow gauge railroad, pan for gold at our working gold mine, horseback ride or mountain bike on our pristine mountain trails, sleep until ten in a historic inn, and drive or hike to the top of one of our four 14,000 foot peaks. 

Whether your visit includes a relaxing soak in our hot springs, shopping and dining in our unique Victorian towns, rafting through rapids on Clear Creek, or fishing for rainbow trout in our clear mountain streams, we'll be happy to guide you.

You'll find all the information here that you need to plan your perfect Colorado adventure. The Choice is Clear. Clear Creek County.
