Chinaman Gulch is easily one of my top 5 favorite trails. It is a 7.1 mile trail that can take between 4-6 hours to complete. Modified 4x4s with lockers and winches are highly recommended. While the area doesn’t get much snow, there are a few times during the winter that this because extremely difficult. When dry, it is still very challenging and should never be run alone.

Skyline Drive – Scenic Drive in Cañon City Colorado
Skyline Drive is a scenic roadway in Cañon City, Colorado. It was built by inmate labor in 1905. The road starts from U.S. Highway 50, with a gradual incline up the side of a ridge. When the road crests, it winds, climbs, and falls like a roller coaster until near its end, where a scenic outlook overlooks both the city (east) and the highway (west).
Skyline Drive, looking towards the south.
The single-lane, one-way road rises about 800 feet (240 meters) above the surrounding terrain. There are no guardrails despite sharp dropoffs, and the drive is about 3 miles (4.83 kilometers) long.
The road ends in a residential neighborhood and becomes a residential street that intersects with 5th Street, where signs point south toward U.S. 50 and “Historic Downtown Cañon City,” allowing drivers to head downtown and return to the highway.

Shelf Road – Cripple Creek to Cañon City Colorado
Shelf Road is a well-maintained dirt road the goes between Cripple Creek and Cañon City Colorado. This is basically as easy as it gets as any regular passenger car with a couple of inches of clearance will have no problems at all. What Shelf Road lacks in difficulty, is more than made up with incredible scenic views.
