Rocky Mountain National Park is one of those places that you have to see in person to truly understand just how special this place really is. We only spent one whole day hiking through the Rockies but I was going to make the best out of it as much as possible. One of the the things I did was pick probably one of the most famous hikes in the park. Sky Pond is a very popular hike and for good reason. But do not let that discourage you from making plans to hike it, you should always see the most popular spots even if there a bit more crowded because you wont be able to enjoy those areas forever. So make the best out as much as you can, the hike itself takes you through and up into the Rockies, you’ll pass ponds, rivers and waterfalls as you travel towards High Pond. The route is nearly 11 miles long but well worth it, make sure to wake up nice and early so you can get parking at the begging of the trail because parking is limited to a few cars.
