You can't go wrong here. Take a coat though, it gets a bit chilly at the top when it's raining. There are no words to discribe the beauty. (more)

My boyfriend and I camped in the park for two nights during a month-long trip across the country. We had a great time, and the scenery was surreal. Indescribable. However, my only suggestion (warning?) is that you... (more)

I spent a relaxing afternoon at Bear Lake last summer. Despite the crowded pathway, the view was spectacular and bird-watching was delightful. Be sure to take plenty of time for periodic stops, as the altitude is... (more)

Forget going to RMNP in the summer--too many tourists! The best time to go is during the week in September or May. You feel like you have the whole place to yourself! If you go in the early morning or evening, you can catch... (more)

This is by far one of the most beautiful places in the country. Elk, Big Horn Sheep, friendly squirrels and chimpmunks are common sites in the park and even on lawns in Estes Park. Great shopping in Estes Park! The views... (more)

The Park has so many things to enjoy, it would take many visits thru ones lifetime to see even part of the park. The reason I like it, is there are even parts of the park that a handicapped person can find solitude, just to... (more)

Taking the Peak-to-Peak highway to Estes Park and then driving into RMNP and over Trail Ridge Road is a drive that will impress anyone. Try to do this on a weekday to get the best conditions.... (more)

Rocky Mountain National is one of the best parks of the Rocky Mountain region. It's close to civilization for all those needs and wants and places to stay but still far enough away from any big city. Beautiful scenery,... (more)
