Guanella Pass路線圖:
Guanella Pass Scenic Byway是一條有歷史意義的風景線,北從70號州際公路旁的喬治城(Georgetown,在丹佛西邊約45哩),南至US285公路的小鎮Grant,全長約22哩,是早期連接 Georgetown和 Grant兩個產礦小鎮的道路,這兩個小鎮在1860年代是有名的銀礦產地。Georgetown目前更發展為觀光小鎮,這兒有礦業博物館,有蒸氣小火車穿行在山腰載觀光客去參觀古礦坑(此火車類似阿里山高山火車)。

每年的九月中旬,這條景觀道路是一處觀賞白楊樹(Aspen)樹葉變色的絕佳景點,滿山滿谷金黃閃爍的Aspen往往給遊客一個震撼。
Georgetown reservoir
目前由Georgetown到Guanella Pass道路都已鋪設好,沿途有早期礦坑遺址、幾個湖泊和露營區,若時間許可,沿著小路可更深入一些高山湖。

由Guanella Pass南下到Grant有一大部份僅是石子路,而且山路陡峭彎曲,但會經過一些大草原,風景蠻美的。
