Rocky Mountain National Park

This park encapsulates the grandeur of the Colorado Rockies, with over 60 peaks above 12,000 feet. Trail Ridge Road, one of America's highest continuous paved roads, offers easy access to fragile alpine tundra ecosystems. Diverse habitats range from montane meadows filled with elk to crystal-clear lakes like Bear Lake and the challenging summit of Longs Peak. Its extensive trail system caters to all levels, from family-friendly loops to demanding high-altitude climbs.

The park's proximity to Denver and Estes Park makes it highly accessible, though a timed entry system manages its immense popularity, ensuring a quality experience.
