Summer Recreation
Summer is probably the greatest time to visit Rocky Mountain National Park and Estes Park, Colorado because of accessibility and variety of outdoor activities available. Hiking, biking, and horseback riding trails in the parks surrounding mountains lead to beautiful vistas, lakes, and grand canyons of rock. Local rivers and lakes provide hours of fun for the whole family on canoes, kayaks, and rafts. Explore the mountains during your summer vacations in a different way than you are used to . . . hire a climbing guide, enjoy the views along a scenic drive, go off-roading on an ATV.
