It had snowed the night before, looked like a Christmas card. Being from the south, all the mountains, lakes etc are very enjoyable. But go in the off season, 'cause if you get stuck behind a motor home, the trip will take ALL day. Up & down & all around, it was fun driving the curves and circles. Would go... More

Drove the Trail Ridge Road from Estes Park to the Continental Divide at Milner Pass. Fortunately for us, the lack of winter snow meant the road opened earlier than usual (normally it's closed unitl Memorial Day weekend). The views are spectacular. The Park Ranger at the Beaver Meadows Visitor Center warned us that ther might be thunderstorms and snow (reducing... More

What a wonderful way to get an overall view of the park in one day. Wonderful views and well maintained road. Couldn't ask for more. More

It can also be a bit dicey however, especially if one is driving a high centered vehicle on a windy day. Gusts of 70 mile an hour winds occur... More

I'm from Colorado and this is hands down my favorite place here. I take all my guests here and they are blown away. A MUST DO. More

We lucked out and drove it on a beautiful day. Not everything was open, but it was a fantastic drive. With the scenic stops and picture opportunities, it probably took about 2-3 hours.
