A beautiful trail overlooking the mountains of Colorado, Estes Park is a wonderful place to explore. Embarked on a hike with some friends and had an amazing experience. Nature surrounding. Some notable destinations along the way is a little forest of lovers – where people carved their initials into a garden of long, tall trees. Next, after enduring the 2.5 hour hike to the top, there was an ice lake known as “Gem Lake” – a frozen lake with mountains surrounding its edges.

Things to look out for: Beware of icy ground in the winter, I took to the trail in January, when there was still ice leftover. Keep this in mind and take your steps carefully.
