Hiking in Glacier Gorge

Glacier Gorge in RMNP is stunningly beautiful. I’m sure climbers love the area as numerous peaks and technical climbs beckon. Even the iconic Longs Peak can be reached from the trailhead. But the area is a wonderful playground for the trail hiker as well – with its beautiful waterfalls, cascades, lakes and incredible mountain vistas.

Besides being stunningly beautiful, Glacier Gorge is also easily accessible, which means it is also very busy. Keep this in mind when planning your hike. Early starts are strongly encouraged!

This album is a collection of my photos from the hikes I have been on in Glacier Gorge. These pictures are primarily from the Glacier Gorge Trail, Loch Vale Trail, Sky Pond Trail and Andrews Glacier Trail. There are areas of Glacier Gorge that I still need to explore and therefore there are more photos to include. So please feel free to add your favorite pictures from your hikes in Glacier Gorge.

I left it as a public album so people like yourself - who have probably been there a lot more than myself - can contribute. Happy New Year, Mark
