Bear Lake Trailhead is a hiking trail Estes Park located in United States.
Bear Lake Rd Estes Park , CO 80517 United States
This lot gets real busy, get here early or take the shuttle from another lot and hike point to point to lose the crowds!
Enjoy one of the park’s easier hike . For a little more challenge, try the 2.8-mile Mills Lake trek with 14,259-foot-tall Longs Peak views .
More of a walk than a hike , makes this trail accessible to many with plenty of picture taking opportunities. Try going before sunset to get the mist rising off the lake !
If u come in late Oct or early Nov, make sure u have the equipment to climb the trail covered completely in snow. Can be very slippery.
So clean and well kept
Busy, even in winter. But 8 restrooms (4 in the winter)
You have to check this park out - amazing and close to Winter Park, Grand Lake and Estes Park! - Paula
