City of gold min​es

Explore Historic Victor, Colorado

Victor, Colorado - the City of Gold Mines - is located at  an elevation of nearly 10,000  feet on the southwest side of Pikes Peak, in the Cripple Creek Victor Mining District.

We are central to the Gold Belt National Scenic Byway and designated as a National Historic District.  This well-preserved gold mining town is 5 miles from Cripple Creek and  45 minutes from Colorado Springs and  Pikes Peak.  

We are  a unique setting of 1890's mine structures and turn-of-the-century brick buildings, unique shops and restaurants, as well as hiking trails, museums, and gold mining experiences. We have clean, cool mountain air and plenty of year-round sunshine. What we do not have - stoplights, chain stores, traffic, or anything resembling the rat race!

Victor is a treasure of historic sites, drives and activities for all ages. Year-round you can explore the 1890's gold rush legacy from railroads to mining to milling and ranching.  

Some venues are seasonal but there are plenty of scenery and historic treasures to enjoy winter, spring, summer and fall. Gold panning and special guided tours  are some of the summer-time family activities. 


Visit the Trails of Gold hiking and biking trails, the local  history museums,  and check out the Gold Belt Byway.
