Rocky Mountain National Park by Tesla

From late May to mid-October the park runs timed entry through recreation.gov and it is enforced at the gate. Book it. Our concierge will handle it if you tell us your dates.

Better than a gas car does. Electric motors lose nothing at altitude, where a combustion engine loses power with the air. And you get a lot of it back on the way down through regen, which also saves your brakes on a long descent.

Roughly late May to mid-October, weather permitting. The high section closes for winter. The rest of the park stays open year round.

Moraine Park and Horseshoe Park at dawn and dusk. In September and October the bulls bugle during the rut, which is worth planning a trip around on its own.

The 7-day Rocky Mountain Route starts in Denver and is here on days 1 and 2 before heading north to Grand Teton.
