Know before you go

• 💡 Timed-entry permits are required in peak season (late May–October) — secure the slot before booking the charter, they sell out.
• 💡 Trail Ridge Road tops out at 12,183 ft; even July brings wind and cold at the top — layers for everyone.
• 💡 Commercial vehicles need a park permit (CUA); confirm your operator holds one before the day trip.

Tips for group trips

• ✓ Timed-entry permits are required in peak season — secure the park reservation before booking the bus.
• ✓ Estes Park is the standard lunch/fuel stop; build it into the itinerary.
• ✓ A full coach is fine on the main roads; some shuttle-restricted areas are car-sized only.
