Estes Park

Estes Park straddles the valley around the confluence of the Big Thompson and Fall rivers in Colorado’s Front Range, a position that has made it a principal base for Rocky Mountain National Park. The park begins just west of town and protects alpine country along the Continental Divide; Trail Ridge Road crosses its high terrain when seasonal conditions permit. The 1909 Stanley Hotel recalls the era of grand mountain resorts and is closely associated with Stephen King’s novel The Shining. Elk are often present around Estes Park, especially in autumn, and visitors are urged to give them ample space.
