There’s so much to discover while in an RV. Rambling along Colorado’s scenic roadways, dotted with breathtaking overlooks, charming mountain towns, and remote hideaways. Start discovering these hidden gems with our list of the best trips to take in an RV in Colorado.
Estes Park
Estes Park, located at the eastern entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park, serves as the gateway to many of the attractions that the vast alpine wonderland has to offer. However, with over 200 shops and restaurants and a packed event schedule, the area is truly a stand-alone attraction. Stroll through the charming downtown district, stop by Snowy Peaks Winery for a glass of wine, or drift along in a canoe on Lake Estes.
Elk Meadow Lodge/RV Park is a great place to park your RV for the night. This location provides convenient access to the national park as well as a variety of family-friendly attractions.
Pagosa Springs
Pagosa Springs, surrounded by two national forests, has a charming, small-town atmosphere and lots to come in terms of outdoor activities. Explore the San Juan Mountains’ backcountry trails, see some of the area’s raging waterfalls, shop at quaint boutiques and museums in downtown Pagosa Springs, or relax in the soothing heat of the natural hot springs.
Stay at the Sportsman’s Campground, 20 miles northwest of Pagosa Springs.
Roosevelt National Forest
Escape the crowds and explore the remote wilderness of Roosevelt National Forest, where you can go rock climbing, mountain biking, or camping. This forest also contains the Cache La Poudre River, Colorado’s only declared National Wild and Scenic River, where you can spend a relaxing afternoon fly-fishing or an action-packed rafting ride down Class IV rapids.
The Fort Collins Lakeside KOA is just around an hour away in nearby LaPorte. There are electrical hookups, Wi-Fi, cable TV, and a seasonal swimming pool at the RV park.
