    This parking lot at the top of the dam has picnic tables and trash cans, but the biggest attraction is the view. From here you have a 360-degree view of the mountains, Downtown Denver, Castle Rock, and often a hot air balloon. If you are looking to add some speed into your ride, the Groove Subaru Team ride starts here every Saturday at 8:30am sharp. Pace is unusually 25-30mph and takes around 1.5hrs .

      Here you'll find an excellent viewpoint over the Chatfield Reservoir.
