Allenspark and Rocky Mountain National Park
[current area photo][more information]

Allenspark, or more precisely the combined area of Raymond/Riverside, Allenspark, Wild Basin, Meeker Park, Cabin Creek and Longs Peak, is one of the most beautiful areas of Colorado and arguably one of its best kept secrets. Located on the doorstep of the Rocky Mountain National Park, it boasts stunning scenery, abundant wildlife and a wide choice of activities to suit everyone's personality and lifestyle.

Allenspark has the advantage over the more well-known Estes Park in that it is not yet fully "discovered". It has easy access to Estes and its attractions, yet remains quieter and non-commercialized. We are a friendly community and love to have visitors. You can meet some of the locals in our town cafes, enjoy a memorable meal at our town's five star restaurant, The Fawnbrook Inn, or simply enjoy quiet and solitude in beautiful surroundings.

Long's Peak From Trail Ridge Road - Erik Stensland, Photographer Allenspark has two national park trail entrances. In the summer it is a perfect place from which to hike into the park or fly fish in some of our pristine mountain streams and lakes. Horseback riding and mountain climbing are also very popular activities. In the winter, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing are a great way to see the park and experience its spectacular beauty. Nearby is the Wild Basin area of the Rocky Mountain National Park which has excellent trails, leading to beautiful waterfalls and lakes. Longs Peak, the highest peak in the area, attracts visitors all year round and is easily accessible. Several other park entrances are located in Estes Park, which is a short drive away. Also located near Allenspark is the Indian Peaks Wilderness area on 76,486 acres with 110 miles of trails and over 50 lakes. We think you'll agree that this is an amazing and unforgettable place to vacation!
