Golden Ponds are three beautiful ponds along the Lykins Gulch Greenway. There is a boardwalk that takes you out towards the center of the main pond, so that you can take in the surrounding scenery.

Hiking

The trail around the ponds is a paved bike path with a flat packed gravel side. The ponds are beautiful, especially at dawn and sunset, and there is a parking lot with restrooms on the northeast side.
