Prehistoric mammoth hunters roamed here for thousands of years, followed by the Ute and Arapaho people who summered within the current park bounds until the early 1800s. Today, Rocky Mountain represents the best of its namesake range—a place of stunning extremes and beauty, with enough trails, lodging, and dining options nearby to enchant every kind of traveler.
