What’s the best route from Denver to Estes Park?

My friends and I are going to Rocky Mountain National Park next weekend. What’s the best way to get there?

Cassandra Hamilton · Updated on

Time in a national park with friends sounds like a fun time! The best route from
Denver
 to Estes Park is to take US-36 N straight to town. The drive should take you a little under an hour and a half.
First, you’ll want to get to
Estes Park
, which is the most popular base town for Rocky Mountain National Park. Once you get there, follow the signs to Rocky Mountain National Park. Inside the park, make sure you check out these activities:
  • Camping
  • Scenic drives
  • Hiking
  • Wildlife watching and photography
  • A ranger-led program
If you do plan to take a scenic drive through the park, make sure your
car insurance
 is up to snuff. You wouldn’t want to break down in a remote area only to find you don’t have
roadside assistance
. It’s easy to upgrade your policy and downgrade your premium with the
Jerry
 app.
Jerry is a
super app
 that makes shopping for car insurance easier and faster than ever. It takes less than two minutes to find multiple quotes after you enter your information, and the average Jerry user saves $800 or more on their car insurance. Download the app today and find out what you can save!
