Overview

Join us for a guided snowy experience in our 3-row Subaru Ascent through Rocky Mountain National Park on a 4 - 5 hour private tour with only your party & your guide! On our tour, you'll see a waterfall (frozen during our winter months), we'll drive up the famous Trail Ridge Road as far as it is opened for the season, if conditions allow, walk around a frozen Bear Lake or Sprague Lake (both flat & less than a mile), and you'll also visit the Beaver Meadows Visitor Center at the end of your tour. This tour is NOT a hiking tour, and focuses more on driving in the National Park with small strolls throughout. Minimum of 2 guests. *Micro spikes will be used instead of snowshoes and are included for your tour to keep you safe while walking on icy surfaces. We are only able to offer hotel pickup for guests in Estes Park or the small surrounding towns. If you're not staying near Estes Park, we can meet you at the free parking garage for the Estes Park Visitor Center for pickup.

Itinerary

  • Rocky Mountain National Park

    Our winter tour, starting in Estes Park, is all about taking a beautiful drive into the snow-covered Rocky Mountain National Park with a small snow / icy hike around Bear Lake (if conditions allow). We'll take you as high up Trail Ridge Road as the weather allows. You'll see frozen lakes, beautiful meadows, and wildlife. Your entrance into the Rocky Mountain National Park is included!

    30 minutes

  • Alluvial Fan

    The second stop on your guided tour is the beautiful frozen Alluvial Fan waterfall. Your driver will give you the interesting history of this geological feature.

    20 minutes

  • Trail Ridge Road

    During the winter months, the famous Trail Ridge Road is usually closed past Many Parks Curve, but your driver will take you as far up the road as possible to see parts of the National Park from above.

    30 minutes

  • Sprague Lake

    If conditions do not allow for snowshoeing at Bear Lake, your guide will instead take you to snowshoe around the equally beautiful Sprague Lake.

    1 hour

  • Bear Lake

    If conditions allow, the main destination of your guided tour is the popular Bear Lake. This beautiful area is much more peaceful during the winter off-season months. Your guide will snowshoe with you around a frozen Bear Lake, where there are many beautiful photo spots.

    1 hour

  • Beaver Meadows Visitor Center

    At the end of your guided tour, you'll make a stop at the Beaver Meadows Visitor Center to purchase souvenirs and get your National Park Passport stamped!

Incredible day for our family

Published on Feb, 2025

If you want to see the park with a knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide, it’s got to be Riley. My family spent an entire day in Rocky and he had my two girls (7 & 5) attention the whole time. From looking through his telescope at wildlife and views, to learning about the various landmarks, and the Jr Ranger station, we didn’t want the day to end. Thank you Riley, you were wonderful! P.S. their stickers are awesome, my kids have had them on their water bottles since we got home.

Best Tour Guide Ever

Published on Feb, 2025

This is a very good well-rounded tour of RMNP. Riley is super knowledgeable, not only about the history of Estes Park but also about the natural events that shaped the terrain. He also knows about the flora and fauna of the area. He was super personable and made the day fun and interesting.

Riley is the guide ultimate tour guide
