More tips for a great visit:
- Rocky Mountain National Park is open 24 hours a day year-round. You can enter or exit any time.
- Summer is the busiest time of year.
- No lodging is available in the park, but there are hundreds of lodging choices in nearby communities.
- Camping reservations inside the park and lodging reservations in gateway communities are highly recommended.
- This is a high elevation park. Trail Ridge Road crests over 12,000 feet. Visitors from lower altitudes may feel the effects of thinner air. Take time to acclimate before doing strenuous activities.
- When you arrive, stop by a park visitor center for up-to-date information on everything from road conditions to hiking trails and ranger-led programs.
