• Rocky Mountain National Park - As the audio guides play commentary based on your gps location, you can create your own itinerary along the tour route(s) to match your interests and schedule.

Or you can use our trip planners for our suggestions on half, full or multi day itineraries.

Some of the many highlights are listed below;

• Trail Ridge Road - Most definitely the star of Rocky Mountain National Park, Trail Ridge Road is a scenic drive like no other in the country. Starting from either Estes Park or Grand Lake, the road climbs to heights above the treeline, topping at over 12,000 feet. There are many scenic overlooks along the way and the views to some of Colorado’s most spectacular mountains is simply superb from this elevated vantage point.

Not to be missed on any visit to Rocky Mountain National Park, driving the Trail Ridge Road is a must-do.

• Estes Park - Charming mountain town that has managed to keep a small town feel, despite being the gateway for the popular Rocky Mountain National Park.

You can still rub elbows with famous mountain explorers, or just enjoy the galleries, eating fudge or shopping for fresh fruit and vegetables at the summertime Farmers Market.

• Bear Lake - The Bear Lake area is the starting point for many of the most popular and scenic hikes in the Park. It’s a leisurely stroll to go around the lake and catch fantastic mountain peaks views in all directions.

Keep watch for wildlife as you drive towards Bear Lake, especially elk, who love this area.

• Many Parks Curve Overlook - The Many Parks Curve Overlook is one of the best turnouts in Rocky Mountain National Park. From the hairpin turn, pull into the carpark.

The curved boardwalk has memorable views to various mountains including Longs Peak, at over 14,000 feet. The terrain we peer into from the view is the result of glaciers bulldozing their way through.

• Tundra Communities Trail - You’re high above the treeline in the alpine tundra here. Hike roughly 1 mile from the Tundra Communities Trailhead and you’ll reach some really unique rock formations - the Mushroom Rocks.

At 12,000+ feet you may feel you need to stop and take short rests to catch your breath. Some wildlife thrive in these conditions and you may see marmots basking on flat rocks and hear pikas squeaking warning calls.

• Old Fall River Road - Before Trail Ridge Road was constructed, the original road that was built to allow visitors to drive into the high alpine was what we know as the Old Fall River Road.

The road is unpaved, but very well maintained, and over 11 miles, climbs its way to the Alpine Visitor Centre at over 11,500 feet. It’s a slow and memorable drive that is driven as a one-way journey - uphill!

• Sprague Lake - Located along the Bear Lake Road, Sprague Lake offers an easy mostly flat, but busy, 0.8 mile loop trail. There are some boardwalks and bridges along the way. The setting is idyllic for this lake that was created by a pioneer who thought his guests might like to fish. Fingers crossed, you might see moose in the late afternoons.
• Chrysalis At the Stanley Hotel - Famous for its inspiration as the Overlook Hotel in author Stephen King’s horror novel “The Shining”. Motoring buffs will have other interests to enter the hotel, there is a Stanley Steamer (steam powered car) on display.

The hotel was constructed by wealthy industrialist and also conservationist, FO Stanley, who wanted the fledgling town to have a 1st-class hotel, to attract early wealthy travelers.

• Holzwarth Historical Site - Some people had to be tough in the old days. Imagine leaving home at age 14 for another country. Seeing your chosen profession in a brewery shutdown when prohibition came into law. Moving your wife and 5 young children to start anew in the Kawuneeche Valley, and eventually building and running a dude ranch with fishing, horseback riding and rodeos.

The Holzwarth family were immigrants from Germany and hardy pioneers. Find out more at the historic site and from on-site staff.

• Alpine Visitor Center - Nowhere else can you drive on paved roads to an elevation of 12,000 feet! The mountain top scenery is stunning of course, and the picture windows inside the Alpine Visitor Center provide an amazing oasis if the wind is blowing, or the temperature is dropping.

Catch your breath and hike the 0.7 mile Alpine Ridge Trail, also known as Huffers Hill, that rises another 147 feet and provides 360 degree views.
