Gem Lake is a hiking trail Estes Park located in United States.
Estes Park , CO 80517 United States
Perfect hike for beginners and families with young children. Very steep, but stunningly scenic . A beautiful lake awaits you once you make it to the top!
The hike up is awesome! Look out for leaches in the water!
Nice trail for kids! Take a picnic lunch . There is a bathroom at the top
Don't feed the ground squirrels / chipmunks ! They are like hungry rats .
When you see the privy, you're just 500 feet from Gem Lake
Pretty short hike , but it is steep!
Awesome views on the way up. The chipmunks at the top are fearless! Bring a little snack for them
This is a short little loop and is handicap accessible for those less inclined to inclines elsewhere in the park. - Erik Laing
Good deli counter and bakery options, as well as a nice organic selection of fruits and veggies, but this is not the place to pick up wine or beer. Go to Rambos for that. - Erik Laing
Cool shop, very good coffee, I always get quad shot coffee and a shot on the side. Great stuff. - Bradley Barker III
