Rocky Mountain National Park: Lily Mountain Trail

Lily Mountain is ideal for Estes Park visitors who don’t have the time or money to hike Rocky Mountain National Park. This is a classic alpine hike with rewarding views and a steady climb. Lily Mountain is often passed over for other hikes in the vicinity, such as Twin Sisters, and the hike is often confused with the small walk around Lily Lake. In addition, it is usually kept a secret and out of brochures, making this hike one of the least crowded around Estes Park.
