Estes Park, in the heart of Colorado’s spectacular Rocky Mountains, is a gateway to Rocky Mountain National Park.

Santa arrives at noon to visit crowds along Elkhorn Avenue, where hayrides and holiday carolers also provide family fun. Join the festivities November 25th, the day after Thanksgiving. The Estes Park Holiday Parade begins at 5:30 with marching bands, floats lit and twinkling as they pass, fun characters for the kids and lots of entertainment. Begin a festive holiday season in downtown Estes Park.

A variety of season events make Estes Park a special holiday destination.
