Around Lyons
Downtown Lyons
Antelope Ranch positions you just minutes from downtown Lyons, a charming town with a welcoming main street, great restaurants, and quaint shops such as Moxie Bread, a local favorite. For an amazing meal, try Farra or Marigold. The neighborhood is a stone's throw from popular destinations like the Planet Bluegrass and Hall Ranch, adding to the allure for lovers of music, festivals, and outdoor adventures. Additionally, the Saint Vrain River, Antelope Trailhead, and the Hall Ranch mountain biking

Rocky Mountain National Park
Wild Basin West Entrance
If waterfalls and hiking are your thing, we highly recommend checking out the lesser know Wild Basin West Entrance to RMNP, located between Antelope Ranch and Allenspark, just off CR 7 (St. Vrain Canyon). This is a park and hike entrance.
Beaver Meadows (Estes Park) Entrance
Beaver Meadows is the traditional Estes Park entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. Here you will find the visitors center just on the outskirts of Estes park and this is the entrance to take if you are planning a drive-through tour of the park and are interested in exploring Trail Ridge Road.
Trail Ridge Road
Trail Ridge Road is the highest continuous paved road in the United States, cresting at an elevation of 12,183 feet above sea level. TRR does close seasonally, so please confirm access at NPS.gov.
