One of the most famous scenic overlooks in RMNP. Located along Trail Ridge Road at about 9,700 ft (2,960m), it easily accessible by car. A short walk allows you to enjoy different viewpoints from the overlook. It is especially beautiful at sunrise and sunset, when the wide valleys and mountain ranges blend with the changing colors of the sky. It is also a great spot for observing wildlife and birds of prey. Bonus: On clear days, you can see Longs Peak in the distance!

It was nice. People recommend we wait here for sunrise. We did, but it definitely wasn't worth an hour wait. If you can catch sunrise here, all good.

Amazing overlook area on the way up to the Milner Pass /Alpine Valley area. We parked right around the corner and walked down the road to the overlook area. It was cold and raining when we got there. Boulder, CO was warmer at low 90s F but this area was in low 60s. As shown in the area, you can see the peaks as listed. Our kids did feel light headed and short of breath as we walked around.

Definitely worth the pullover and the time spent looking at some of the scenery. Offers up easy parking when not to congested. It offers a railed off area to view the beautiful scenery that surrounds you. And just passed the Overlook there is a hiking trail that leads up the mountain. So do yourself a favor slow down take a look you'll enjoy it

A nice spot to stop to take a photo with a proper parking lot. It is wonderful to see the lush green range of mountain over the big blue sky, tamed with white clouds and some snow peaks. Definitely worth a pause to appreciate what the earth provides us.
