Rocky Mountain National Park Hiking

Highlights

Description

Experience Colorado’s high-country beauty on a guided full-day hike with Aspire Tours. Start your journey with hotel or meeting-point pickup in Denver, Boulder, or Lyons before traveling into the heart of Rocky Mountain National Park. Your professional local guide leads a 4–5 mile moderate hike through a variety of terrains—towering evergreens, alpine lakes, and scenic overlooks. Along the way, spot elk, moose, or eagles while learning about the park’s natural and cultural history. Midday, enjoy a freshly prepared picnic lunch with sandwiches, cookies, and snacks. In winter, Aspire provides snowshoes or traction devices to make the trails accessible year-round. Designed for small groups, this eco-conscious tour ensures a relaxed pace, meaningful interpretation, and unforgettable mountain moments.
