The valley of Estes Park inspires outdoor adventures from hiking Rocky Mountain National Park's 350 miles of alpine trails to whitewater rafting the Cache La Poudra River. In the winter, elk and bighorn sheep roam around the town, vying for attention with art galleries, museums and the landmark Stanley Hotel, star of Stephen King's "The Shining." The Estes Park Aerial Tramway sails above the treetops, providing views of 14,259-foot Longs Peak, the village and the Continental Divide.
