Black Hawk is the center of Colorado’s commercial casino industry. Packed into a narrow mountain canyon along North Clear Creek at an elevation of 8,057 feet, this small city of roughly 150 permanent residents hosts the largest, most densely concentrated collection of casino resorts in the Rocky Mountain region. On any given weekend, tens of thousands of guests travel the 40-mile stretch from Denver to play in properties that range from sleek 20-story resort towers to smaller independent operations along a single stretch of Main Street.
Main Street in Black Hawk runs for less than half a mile, but it contains more casino square footage per block than almost anywhere outside Nevada and Atlantic City. The properties stack up in sequence from the lower (east) end of Main Street near the Highway 119 intersection up through the canyon, with the largest resort towers anchoring both ends.
Black Hawk is most easily reached from Denver via US-6 through Clear Creek Canyon or CO-119 from Boulder. Both routes are mountain highways with significant grades and serious winter driving conditions from November through April. A free park-and-ride shuttle operates from the intersection of CO-119 and CO-58, with regular service to the Main Street casino area. Parking garages are attached to Monarch, Ameristar, and several points along Main Street. Denver International Airport is approximately 60 miles away — no scheduled commercial shuttles serve Black Hawk, so most visitors drive or arrange private transport.
