The Estes Park Aerial Tramway was an amazing experience and one of the highlights of our trip! The ride to the top was smooth and offered incredible panoramic views of Estes Park, the surrounding mountains, and Rocky Mountain National Park. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking from start to finish. Once at the top, we enjoyed exploring the summit, taking photos, and soaking in the stunning views. It was also fun seeing the friendly chipmunks that are known to visit the area. The staff was welcoming, and the tramway was well organized and easy to access. Whether you're visiting Estes Park for the first time or returning for another adventure, the Aerial Tramway is a must-do attraction. The views alone are worth the trip, and it's a memorable experience for all ages. Highly recommended!

A must do if you're visiting Estes Park!! We did this on our last day in town and I'm so glad we did. This ended up being one of my kids favorite things we did here. We did not buy tickets in advance and the process was super quick and easy when we bought them there. The ride up and down was so cool! We waited maybe 10-15 minutes in line to ride up and there was no wait to ride down (just had to wait for the tram to come back up). You can only stand in the tramway car and an employee always rides with you. The views up top were some of the best in town. They even had a neat little sign showing all the mountain tops you could see with their heights. The little Cafe up top was nice. Food was good and the employees were very kind and helpful. We hiked up the trail to the West Summit peak. Super easy walk and my kids were obsessed with all of the chipmunks! They fed them peanuts which the chipmunks took right from their hands. You do have to pay for parking which was around $7-8. Overall we enjoyed this and would do it again!

Fun, unique experience! Highly recommend. The café at the top has pretty good food - perfect for lunch or a snack. Additionally, the trail to the top of Mount Prospect was a great little 1.2 mi hike!

For a small tram visitor experience it was very well done. Staff was very helpful and friendly. The views were amazing. The ride is very short but the views at the top made it worth it. Make sure to feed the Chipmunks and take the 1/2 mile walk to the peak! There is also a small Cafe, gift shop and separate bar at the top.

Nice people and an amazing little park with wifi and a hiking trail. Went 0.6 miles to the west summit. The little store at both ends sell knick-knacks and food and drinks. Beer at the top for those wishing to imbibe. My 9 yo loved feeding peanuts to the wild chipmunks.
