The Peak to Peak Scenic and Historic Byway is a State and Nationally designated byway. It runs from Estes Park at its north end to Black Hawk at the south end, traversing ridges and valleys of the Front Range. Highlights include scenic vistas of the Continental Divide and many historic mine sites of Boulder, Larimer and Gilpin counties. The Peak to Peak Scenic Byway passes through Allenspark, Ward, Nederland, and Rollinsville, in addition to some smaller communities along the way.
