Welcome to Estes Park
Estes Park is just seconds from one of the US's most popular national parks. The town itself is a hotchpotch of T-shirt shops and ice-cream parlors, sidewalks jammed with tourists and streets plugged with RVs. But when the sun reflects just right off Lake Estes, or you spend an afternoon with a lazy coffee on the riverwalk, you might just find a little piece of zen.
