Estes Park offers a paradise for golfers of all abilities. Estes Park Golf Club are operated by the Estes Valley Recreation and Park District as public courses. The scenery is awe inspiring, and the effect of the light air at this high altitude will surprise you on the distance of some of your shots. Beware, you may have to share the fairways with the deer, elk and coyote that frequent the manicured grass of both courses. Devils Gulch Road, the county extension of MacGregor Avenue, north of the town limits, is a gentle and pleasant bicycle ride for all family members.
Bicycles are available for rent downtown at several locations.
About a ten mile loop will take you out Devils Gulch to its connection to Dry Gulch Road, down a scenic, gentle descent to Lake Estes bike path which leads along the shores of Lake Estes back to the downtown area. The town of Estes Park plays host to several horse shows and a rodeo at its Stanley Park Arena each Summer. It is also the site of many other special events such as the Longs Peak Scottish Festival, the Estes Park Wool Market and other family oriented productions. Winter in Estes Park is a rewarding time to visit the mountains. The deer, elk and bighorn sheep make the Estes Valley their wintering grounds and are often viewable along the roads and streets around town.
