GS: Follow the foothills south to Golden



Home of the Coors Brewing Company, Golden has much to offer. Starting at the Boulder Transit Center, the GS heads south on Broadway stopping by campus a few times. As Broadway morphs into Highway 93, the views from the GS are breathtaking. Golden rays of sun shoot through scattered clouds and highlight Rocky Mountain hills and valleys. Regain your breath as the GS heads into Golden. Stop by the Coors Brewery for a tour or plan a biking or kayaking trip with one of Golden's rental centers. Head further south on the GS to shop at the Colorado Mills Mall, where you can enjoy dinner at The Keg Steakhouse. Colorado Mills offers shopping at Saks 5th Avenue, Neiman Markus and Barnes and Noble Booksellers.
 
The GS runs six morning and afternoon trips to and from Boulder and Golden starting when the sun peeks over the horizon. From mid-morning until early afternoon, the GS stops serving customers and settles down for a nap. The last four GS trips from Golden to Boulder leave during rush hour so don't miss your return trip. Plan your Golden trips for the weekdays, because this bus takes weekends off.
