A Day Trip From Denver- Rocky Mountain National Park


Rocky Mountain National Park is located in Estes Park, a beautiful day drive from the Denver area.  Nature lovers will have a great time on the 359 miles of trails available in RMNP.  Gorgeous views and amazing wildlife sightings throughout the park.  Trail Ridge Road cuts through snow crusted mountain sides even in the summer (The road is closed during the winter).   The children love to see the snow right next to road even during the warm weather.  There are lots of areas to get out and walk and climb around.   The only drawback we found is the fact that restrooms are few and far between;  make sure to use them while at the visitor's center.

Located on US Route 34 and US Route 36 in Estes Park.  Phone Number:  970.586.1206
COST:  $20 per passenger car
HOURS:  Park is open 24 hours per day, 7 days per week
