Trail Ridge Road
Most definitely the star of Rocky Mountain National Park, Trail Ridge Road is a scenic drive like no other in the country. Starting from either Estes Park or Grand Lake, the road climbs to heights above the treeline, topping at over 12,000 feet. There are many scenic overlooks along the way and the views to some of Colorado's most spectacular mountains is simply superb from this elevated vantage point. Not to be missed on any visit to Rocky Mountain National Park, driving the Trail Ridge Road is a must-do.

Important to check road...

5.00Important to check road and trail closures based on season not only current conditions. Some roads are closed in fall/winter season and the narrative doesn’t offer this that i could tell
Great Experience!

5.00It was easy and loved the stories. It let us know ahead of when we needed to turn; we really appreciated the options to stop or keep going.
Rough start, no support

3.00It was difficult to figure out how to use., finally did. Never got it synced up with the rental car’s Wi-Fi. Tried calling the support line provided & they hung up on me twice! Got a “return” call just as we were leaving the park. The information on it was very good & useful. Just hard to get.
Very informative

5.00The guide was funny and had many interesting facts. It was so helpful to know what was up ahead and if it was worth stopping for or not. Highly recommended! We will use this again when going through national parks!
Couldn’t play so that we both could hear.

1.00I’m older with hearing aids so it would play through those but my wife couldn’t hear it. Had a rental car and didn’t have the proper cord to connect my phone so we didn’t use it at all. Waste of money for me.
MUST HAVE

5.00I wasn’t sure if this would be worth it, but purchased it anyway, and I can honestly say it was exceptional! The GPS aspect was especially good. The narrator was clear and very informative. It was perfect.
Interesting info but not too much

5.00What a neat idea! The app knew exactly where we were and we were given interesting info and tips all along our route. (Interesting but not too in-depth where you'd lose interest.) We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and would definitely recommend!
