Estes Park is a town in the state of Colorado. It is well-known as a base for the Rocky Mountain National Park, which is home to animals like elk and bears, as well as kilometers of trails. The Trail Ridge Road in the park goes through jagged peaks, woodlands, and tundra. The Roosevelt National Forest's wilderness areas are nearby. The Estes Park Aerial Tramway connects the town to Prospect Mountain's peak for panoramic views of the valley.


Estes Park, Colorado, is about 70 miles northwest of Denver and about 75 miles from Denver International Airport. It is located at the base of Rocky Mountain National Park. Estes Park is an excellent starting point for visitors looking to stay close to Colorado's outdoor attractions. The owner and editor of the Rocky Mountain News called the place Estes Park in 1864 in honor of the successful gold miner Joel Estes, who resided there from 1860 to 1866. In 1909, the famed Stanley Hotel debuted in Estes Park. The hotel's construction transformed Estes Park into a luxury retreat town that would welcome Pope St. John Paul II, Emperor Akihito of Japan and President George W. Bush. In 1982, a burst dam in Rocky Mountain National Park caused Estes Park to flood, so the town's current appearance differs a bit from historical photos.


Nowadays, Estes Park attracts visitors from all walks of life who wish to experience the wilderness of the American Rockies while staying close to the amenities of a small town. Warm weather is perfect for hiking, bicycling, fly-fishing, equestrian riding, the aerial tram, and other outdoor activities. Snow, on the other hand, provides cold-weather sports such as snowshoeing, backcountry skiing, and ice climbing. Whether visitors come to Estes Park in search of adrenaline-pumping adventure activities or to rest and take in the mountain air, they are not disappointed.
