Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) is the gem of north central Colorado. If you're in the area, spend some time to experience Colorado's high-country. Hiking, camping, wildlife, ecology, and research are just a sampling of the ongoing activities in this paradise. In a word, "Wild" is what makes RMNP different from other National Parks. Beginning with enactment of the Rocky Mountain National Park Act in 1915, the guiding emphasis of the management plan is to keep "Rocky" wild.
