One of the most fun drive, but be aware it is very high so oxygen will be in short supply. The sad thing is you cannot see everything when driving, let your family enjoy the beauty please. Full review by ScarboroughADyork

Q:
Hello, We plan on doing the trail ridge road on the 5th and have the ticket for between 9-11am entry. We are staying in Estes Park. This is the only activity we have planned for the day and will be visiting with 3 year and 6 year old. I had initially only planned to drive up to the Alpine visitor center and turn back but wanted to check if the recommended is to drive all the way to grand lake? Do you take HW 34 or take HW 36 to HW34? If we do the entire drive and also make stops at the scenic lookovers, how much time should be plan for? I see Alpine Ridge trail is a nice easy hike, are there any other short hikes along the way that are recommended? Also, we plan on stopping at the popular overlooks; Forest Canyon, Rainbow Curve, Many Parks Curve etc, Are there stops along the way with waterfalls etc that we can stop along the way? appreciate your feedback in advance. Thnx!
