Filmed: December 30, 2025

Experience one of America's most spectacular drives with this 4K scenic tour along the famous Peak to Peak Highway (Colorado State Highways 7, 72, and 119). This route takes you south from the gateway of Estes Park, through the quirky mountain town of Nederland, and down into the unique city of Boulder, showcasing the dramatic beauty of the Colorado Front Range.

A Historic Route Through Mining Country
This entire scenic byway follows a historic path carved by prospectors and pioneers through the heart of Colorado's mining history:

Estes Park: Established as the gateway to the future Rocky Mountain National Park (founded 1915), its history is tied to early tourism, ranching, and the famous Stanley Hotel, which inspired The Shining.

Nederland: This town's name, Dutch for "low land," refers to it being lower than the mining camps above it. It began as a stage stop and later thrived as a supply center for the nearby Tungsten mining district. It's now known for its unique culture and the annual "Frozen Dead Guy Days" festival.

Boulder: At the end of our drive lies Boulder, a city defined by the 1859 Gold Rush and its subsequent decision to establish the University of Colorado in 1876, balancing frontier development with a unique commitment to preserving its natural beauty.

Join us as we navigate this high-altitude highway, capturing stunning views of the Continental Divide and traveling through the rugged landscape that shaped early Colorado!
