Note: This 40+ miles-long tour covers the essentials of Rocky Mountain Park in 2-3 hours.

• Beaver Meadows Visitor Center - Beaver Meadows Visitor Center, also known as Rocky Mountain National Park Administration Building, is the park headquarters and principal visitors center of Rocky Mountain National Park in central northern Colorado.

• Hidden Valley - After that is Hidden Valley, a boreal forest with some of the hardiest flora in the country.
• Many Parks Curve Overlook - You’ll arrive next at the Many Parks Curve Overlook, which offers stunning views of not one or two but three gorgeous mountain meadows.
• Rainbow Curve Overlook - The next overlook you’ll reach is Rainbow Curve Overlook, which sits right at the altitude beyond which most trees can no longer grow. Suffice to say it boasts some pretty incredible views!

• Lava Cliffs Overlook - Your route takes you next to the Lava Cliffs Overlook. You might not think “lava” when you think of the Rocky Mountains, but these 28 million year-old cliffs are sure to change your mind about that!
• Gore Range Overlook - Next, you’ll arrive at the Gore Range Overlook. This ominously-named range gets its name from the deep red coloring it takes on at certain times of the day, and you might just catch sight of that striking image while visiting!
• Alpine Visitor Center - You’ll pass the Alpine Visitor Center next. This isn’t just a great place to stop for snacks and restrooms, it’s also the highest-elevation visitor center in any US national park!
• Medicine Bow Curve - At the Medicine Bow Curve, up next, you won’t want to leave your camera in the car! This vista is so high up you can see the state of Wyoming from it!
• Forest Canyon Overlook - Ever seen an alpine lake? That’s next, at Poudre Lake. This lake is so high up that it freezes all the way through, top to bottom, each winter.
• Farview Curve Viewpoint - Continuing on, you’ll arrive at Fairview Curve Viewpoint, offering an excellent look at the Never Summer Mountain Range.
• Colorado River Trail - The next trail leads to some great views of the famous Colorado River. Here, you’ll also learn some of that river’s surprising history.

• Holzwarth Historic Site - More history waits ahead, at the Holzwarth Historic Site. Once the home of a small family, this became one of the nation’s first dude ranches before the area was a national park.
• Bowen-Baker Trailhead - Up next is the Bowen/Baker Trailhead, marking the start of one of the park’s longest trails. Experienced hikers looking for a challenge will definitely want to check this one out!
• Coyote Valley Trailhead - The next trail, the Coyote Valley Trail, is a great choice for hikers looking for an easier, shorter journey. This trek also has opportunities for fishing!
• Onahu Trailhead - The Ute and the Arapaho weren’t the only tribes to call the Rockies home. You’ll learn about another, the Onahu, at the Onahu Trailhead up next.
• Grand Lake - The main tour concludes in the town of Grand Lake, which has all the amenities you’ll need after a long, rewarding day in the Rockies.

• Hollowell Park - A relaxing destination with many picnic tables and excellent views of Mill Creek Basin below Longs Peak.
• Sprague Lake - Continuing on, you’ll come to Sprague Lake, one of the best spots in the entire park to catch the sunrise. If you can get here early enough, it’s highly recommended!
• Bierstadt Lake Trailhead - After that is the Bierstadt Lake Trailhead. This lake is every bit as beautiful as Sprague Lake, and tends to have fewer visitors, so be sure to stop by if you want to enjoy a bit of wilderness solitude.
• Glacier Gorge Junction Trailhead - The next trail, at Glacier Gorge Junction, offers a great trek through the park’s famous quaking aspens. These iconic aspens are among the hardiest trees around!
• Bear Lake - Finally, you’ll arrive at Bear Lake. This immense lake is a phenomenal spot to end your journey, get a few final photos, and bask in the pristine beauty of the Rocky Mountains.
