Estes Park is nestled in the Rocky Mountains due west of Loveland, Colorado. The Estes Valley is the gateway to Rocky Mountain National Park; two entrances are available from the town. At an elevation of 7,500 feet above sea level, Estes Park offers vacationers and tourists time to relax and enjoy the marvels of nature from high mountains vistas to deep canyon streams. Environmentalists work hard to preserve the pristine flora and fauna.
