Sunshine, Pines, Mountain peaks, lakes are some of Colorado’s preview. It presents another destination for your RV vacation – The Rocky Mountain National Park. The rich scenery of the park typifies the massive grandeur of the Rocky Mountains.
Drive from Denver and the east, take U.S. routes 34 or 36 through Estes Park, Colorado. If you are from west or south, take I-70 to U.S. Rt. 40., then to U.S. Rt.34 through Grand Lake, Colorado. The Trail Ridge Road gives the best view of the Rocky Mountain National Park while it is considered as the highest continuous motorway in the United States. The Road promises a spectacular view and in the early morning when the sun is about to rise.
