A scenic bus tour exploring the drama of the elk rut in Rocky Mountain National Park

It’s impossible to ignore the magic of fall in the Rockies! The fall rut is a spectacular display of elk mating behavior featuring bugling, posturing, and herding displays by the bulls. Paired with the reds and golds of fall foliage, this extraordinary event will be available for viewing from the comfort of our minibus staffed by a professional educational guide who will discuss elk ecology, interpret elk behavior for guests, and have elk artifacts such as antlers and hides for participants to see and touch. This tour is approximately 3.5 hours in length.

Thursday, Friday, and Saturday afternoons in September and October, from 3:00pm – 6:30pm

No public tour on September 26 or September 28

Adults: $50, children 12 & under: $25

Meets at the Fall River Visitor Center in Estes Park, CO
