The village of Estes Park is at 7,522 feet above sea level and cradled by mountain peaks ranging from 9,000 to 14,259 feet. It is the mountain getaway at the foot of Rocky Mountain National Park and only a 90-minute drive from Denver. This year-round, family-friendly community welcomes you to enjoy the Rocky Mountains.
Wildlife is part of the scenery. Don’t be surprised to discover elk bedding down on the seventh fairway or walking across aptly named Elkhorn Avenue downtown. Bighorn sheep favor the Big Thompson Canyon or hang out at Sheep Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park.
The Rocky Mountains are on full display as you drive into town, so sightseeing is a must. Drive up the winding Bear Lake Road in Rocky Mountain National Park and marvel at the thundering Big Thompson River. Avid photographers drive Trail Ridge Road for the best picture spots at Many Parks Curve and Forest Canyon Overlook.
For the outdoor person, the Park offers gentle mountain walks, hikes to pristine alpine lakes, acclaimed mountaineering and winter sports like ice climbing and snowshoeing.
