Chimney Gulch Trail is in the Jefferson County trail system and is connected to the Windy Saddle Trail and Park. The trail climbs to 2,000 feet in 2.5 miles from Highway 6 to the summit at Lookout Mountain Nature Center.<br />
The trail is moderate to advanced and passes through grass prairie and pine forest, crossing streams at several places.
This trail starts just below Lookout Mtn in Golden. The easiest way to get there is to take Hwy 6 North from I-70 for about 2 miles. Just before you reach the Hwy 58 intersection you will notice a small dirt pullout on the left side. Jeffco Open space has a great map of this park/trail. The park is called Windy Saddle.
