Directions

There's a saying in Colorado, "If you don't like the weather--wait 5 minutes. It'll change." That's certainly true of Estes Park, Colorado too.

Winter But the one thing we've found is that when the TV is showing snow in the mountains, and the I-70 corridor is getting socked in, we don't usually get any of that snow. We have had a tendency to get Wyoming snow when it dips down from Canada.

We've found the weather to be really quite nice. It seems to run about 5 degrees colder than Denver. So, for example, it was 3 degrees here in early November--but it was 8 in Denver at the time. We've also observed that a few times it's been grey and yucky on the Front Range, and sunny and beautiful up here. So watch for temperature inversions--that means it's most certainly warmer up here.

Summer weather tends to run about 10 degrees cooler than Denver. And don't believe the readout on the bank coming into town--it's NEVER right!!!

It's always a great time to come to Estes Park!

Do bring fleece in the winter. And remember--our weather can be warm or cold--any time of the year--and it can change quite rapidly. It's great! So bring clothes for all kinds of weather.
