Where Is Rocky Mountain National Park?

Closest Major Cities & Driving Distances

Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) is one of the most stunning and accessible national parks in the U.S., located in northern Colorado. Sitting between the charming mountain towns of Estes Park and Grand Lake, RMNP offers over 265,000 acres of alpine lakes, rugged peaks, and winding trails. If you’re eloping here, you and your guests will have plenty of options for lodging, dining, and exploring before and after the big day.

Whether you’re a local or traveling in from out of state, here’s how far RMNP is from some major cities:

Estes Park, on the east side of the park, is the most common home base for elopements. Grand Lake, on the west side, is smaller and quieter, but just as beautiful.

How to Get to Rocky Mountain National Park

Closest Major Airports:

If you’re flying in, here are the best airport options:

Denver International Airport is your best bet, with tons of rental car options and direct flights from all over the country.

How to Drive to Rocky Mountain National Park:

No matter where you’re coming from, there are a few key things to know about driving into RMNP:

From Denver & Boulder: Take US-36 W through Lyons into Estes Park. This is the fastest and most common route to the Beaver Meadows Entrance, the park’s main access point.

From Fort Collins: Take US-34 W through Loveland and up the Big Thompson Canyon—a gorgeous drive, but can be prone to closures due to rockslides or flooding.

From Grand Lake: Enter the park via Trail Ridge Road, a high-altitude highway with unreal views. Important: This road is closed in winter, usually from late October to May, due to snow.

Once you’re in Estes Park or Grand Lake, getting to the park is straightforward, but parking can be difficult in peak summer months. If you’re eloping during the busy season (June–September), plan to arrive early.

Rocky Mountain National Park is a well-loved destination for elopements because it’s easy to access yet feels wild and remote—perfect for couples who want jaw-dropping scenery without an extreme trek. Whether you’re road-tripping from nearby or flying in for the experience, the journey to RMNP is just the beginning of an unforgettable wedding day.

Why Should You Elope at Rocky Mountain National Park?

So, you’re thinking about eloping in Rocky Mountain National Park? Hell yeah, you are. And honestly, it’s one of the best places you could pick. Whether you want to hike up to an alpine lake, say your vows in a quiet mountain meadow, or just soak up some unreal views with your person, RMNP has it all. Here’s why it’s a killer spot for your elopement:

The Scenery is Next-Level: No matter what kind of backdrop you want, RMNP delivers. Towering peaks, alpine lakes, pine forests, golden aspen groves, wide-open meadows, tundra landscapes at higher elevations—you name it. Every inch of this park is stunning.

Epic Yet Accessible: Unlike some national parks that require serious effort to reach, RMNP is super accessible. It’s only 1.5 hours from Denver, and Estes Park has plenty of lodging, food, and post-ceremony drinks (highly recommend hitting up The Barrel for a celebratory beer).

Options for Every Activity Level: Want an epic sunrise hike? You got it. Prefer an easy drive-up spot with mountain views? That works too. With 355 miles of trails, you can go as hard or as chill as you want.

Perfect for Every Season: Summer? Wildflowers and green meadows. Fall? Golden aspens everywhere. Winter? Snowy peaks and cozy cabin vibes. Spring? Clear lakes and fresh mountain air. There’s no bad season to elope here.

Yeah, It’s Popular—But You Can Still Find Your Spot: RMNP is one of the busiest national parks in the country, so if you’re hoping for zero people around, this isn’t the place. But with the right timing (sunrise, sunset, weekdays, off-season), you can still find quiet, breathtaking spots to make it feel like it’s just you two.

Make a Whole Experience Out of It: Your elopement doesn’t have to be just a quick ceremony. Go on a scenic drive up Trail Ridge Road, take a hike to Dream Lake, rent a cabin in Estes Park, or spend the weekend spotting wildlife like elk, moose, and bighorn sheep.

Bottom line? Rocky Mountain National Park is the perfect mix of wild, accessible, and downright beautiful. If you and your person love the outdoors, value intimate experiences, and want a day that’s all about you, this is your spot. RMNP has everything you need for an unforgettable elopement experience.

FAQ’s About Eloping at Rocky Mountain National Park

Eloping in Rocky Mountain National Park comes with some logistics to figure out—nothing crazy, but definitely things you’ll want to know before the big day. Here are some of the most common questions couples ask when planning their RMNP elopement:

Can you get married in Rocky Mountain National Park?

Yes! But RMNP has specific designated ceremony sites where weddings and elopements are allowed. You can’t just pop up anywhere and say your vows (as much as we’d love that). The park has a set list of locations where ceremonies are permitted, and you’ll need to apply for a special use permit to make it official.

Do you need a permit to elope in RMNP?

Yep—a permit is required for all weddings and elopements, even if it’s just the two of you. I recommend snagging your permit as soon as you’ve picked a date to make sure you lock in your spot, see more details about permits below!

Where can you get married in Rocky Mountain National Park?

RMNP has a list of designated ceremony sites, each with different guest limits (ranging from just a couple of people to 30+ guests). These locations do change from time to time, so always double-check with the park’s website to see the most up-to-date list. I’ll go more in depth on specific locations further down in the blog post!

Are dogs allowed at RMNP elopements?

For the most part, no—dogs aren’t allowed on trails or ceremony sites in Rocky Mountain National Park. But there is one exception: Moraine Park Amphitheater is the only designated ceremony site in RMNP where dogs are allowed. If you’re set on having your pup be part of your elopement, this is your best option inside the park! Just keep in mind that they must be on a leash at all times.

Outside of that, dogs are only allowed in parking lots, campgrounds, and picnic areas, so if you want them involved in part of your day, we can always plan for some photos at a dog-friendly location nearby before or after your ceremony.

How crowded is Rocky Mountain National Park?

RMNP is one of the most visited national parks in the country, so yeah—it gets busy, especially in summer and fall. But don’t stress! If you elope at sunrise, on a weekday, or in the off-season (late fall to early spring), you’ll have a much better chance of finding quiet, intimate spots without the crowds.

What’s the best time of year to elope in RMNP?

It depends on what kind of vibe you’re going for:

Summer (June-August) – Warm weather, lush green landscapes, and clear mountain lakes. Also, peak tourist season.

Fall (September-October) – Gorgeous golden aspens, crisp air, and elk bugling season. Crowds start to thin out.

Winter (November-March) – Snowy peaks, frozen lakes, and cozy winter vibes. Some areas (like Trail Ridge Road) are closed, but if you love winter landscapes, this is the time.

Spring (April-May) – The start of snow melt, rushing waterfalls, and fewer crowds. The higher elevation areas will likely still have snow.

Can you drive to ceremony locations, or do you have to hike?

Some spots are drive-up accessible, while others require a short walk or hike.

As long as you follow the park’s guidelines, it’s a pretty easy and stress-free process. If you have any other questions, I’ve got you—let’s plan the perfect elopement day for you!

Rocky Mountain National Park Wedding & Elopement Permits

Eloping in a national park means following a few extra rules—but I promise, it’s worth it. Rocky Mountain National Park has a permit system in place to help protect the land and keep things running smoothly for everyone who visits. If you’re eloping here, you’ll need a Special Use Permit for your ceremony, plus you and your guests will still need to pay park entry fees. Here’s everything you need to know to make sure you’re set up for a stress-free wedding day.

Rocky Mountain National Park Wedding Special Use Permit

To have an official ceremony inside RMNP, you must apply for a Special Use Permit. This permit allows you to have your wedding at one of the park’s designated ceremony sites—but there are some rules to keep in mind.

What does the permit allow/not allow?

No arches, chairs, or big decorations – RMNP keeps ceremonies simple and LNT friendly.
No amplified music – Acoustic music is fine, but no speakers or sound systems.
Limited guest count – Each ceremony site has a max guest limit, usually between 10-30 people.
Trail etiquette – RMNP is a public space, so you can’t block trails or restrict access to other visitors.
You must use one of the park’s designated wedding sites—you can’t just elope anywhere you want in the park.

How far in advance do you need to apply?

RMNP only issues 60 wedding permits per month, and they fill up fast—especially in peak seasons. You can apply up to one year in advance, and I highly recommend doing it as early as possible, especially if you’re eloping in summer or fall.

How much does it cost?

The Special Use Permit costs $300 and is non-refundable.

What locations are allowed for ceremonies?

RMNP has a limited number of designated wedding sites, and each has its own guest limit—see more on this below!

What type of parking is allowed?

Parking is limited at most ceremony sites, and carpooling is highly recommended. No shuttle services are provided by the park for elopements, so plan accordingly if you have guests. Some locations (like Sprague Lake) require you to park in the main lot and walk a short distance.

Will you & your guests still need to pay the regular park entry fee?

Yes—your Special Use Permit does NOT cover park entry fees. Everyone attending your elopement (including you) will need to pay the standard park entrance fee or have a valid park pass.

How do you get your Rocky Mountain National Park elopement permit?

Fill out the Special Use Permit application on the official RMNP website.
Pay the $300 non-refundable fee.
Wait for confirmation from the park (they’ll email you back once it’s approved).
Follow all the park’s rules and bring a printed copy of your permit on the big day.

Rocky Mountain National Park Entry Fees & Passes

In addition to your Special Use Permit, you and your guests will need to pay the park entry fee to enter RMNP. If you’re visiting during peak season, you might also need a timed entry reservation to access the park.

Park Entry Fees

$30 per vehicle (valid for 1 day)
$35 per vehicle (valid for 7 days)
$70 annual pass (Rocky Mountain National Park only)
$80 America the Beautiful Pass (covers all U.S. national parks for a year—great if you travel a lot!)

Timed Entry Permits (Required During Peak Season)

From May through October, RMNP requires timed entry reservations, time varies depending on what area of the park you’ll be visiting.
If your elopement is happening during specified hours in summer or fall, you’ll need to reserve your entry slot in advance through the National Park Service website. If you’re eloping outside those hours, you can skip the timed entry permit.

I know—permits sound like a hassle, but they’re not too bad if you plan ahead! The main things to remember: apply early, pick from the park’s designated locations, follow the rules, and make sure you and your guests have park entry passes. Once that’s squared away, you’re free to focus on what really matters—having the most incredible, stress-free, and beautiful elopement day in one of the most breathtaking places in the country.

If you need help navigating the permit process or figuring out which location is best for your elopement, I’ve got you friend—just reach out, and we’ll make this as easy as possible!
