Timberline Pass is one of the easiest mountain passes to access in Rocky Mountain National Park; it is just a few miles from Trail Ridge Road, following the Ute Trail. The hike to the pass goes through the alpine tundra and has little elevation gain; a nice breezy walk through the expansive landscape. The trail is quite exposed, so it is good to check the weather before starting the hike.
