Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) in Colorado is one of the most famous and highest national parks in the USA. Longs Peak is the highest point at 4,345 meters. The landscape is characterized by mountain forests with aspens, pines, and expansive meadows, where elk are common. Dense coniferous forests and mountain lakes, as well as rugged, treeless plateaus with only low-growing plants, bighorn sheep, and marmots can also be found. A highlight is the Trail Ridge Road, the highest continuously paved mountain pass in North America, leading through the alpine tundra. The most popular hiking area, with its numerous lakes, is the Bear Lake Corridor. The park is open year-round, although many roads and trails are closed during the winter months due to snow or are only accessible with appropriate equipment. Due to its immense popularity, time-slot reservations are often required for access during peak season.

Truly one of the most beautiful national parks. Note: Reservations are required in many seasons.

Great trip! If you're not used to the elevation, give yourself time to acclimate. I only acclimated for about a week and had to take frequent breaks past tree line, but we'll worth the trip. Barr Trail is also a great trip. "Easier" but longer than this path. 10/10, especially for submitting one of Colorado's 14ers!

If you get up early, it's worth driving up the mountain in your own car. Where else can you drive up a four-thousand-meter peak?

… don’t expect green 🤩 but expect magnificent views … enjoy slowly leaving behind the city noise …

Longs Peak Trail is a great hike for anyone for the first 6 miles. There is beautiful, diverse terrain, and it can be exposed with sweeping views. Be aware that after about 6 miles, the trail becomes a scramble and more technical before reaching the summit of Longs Peak.

Wonderful rock formation over boulders; summit with a small stone pyramid and a panoramic view of all the mountains visible from here. Ascent via various routes - basically accessible from all directions. If you're looking for solitude, you're in the wrong place here, but there aren't any crowds either. It's worth it!
