Sprague Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park offers an easy stroll on a paved, wheelchair-accessible path around the edge of the lake.

 

Bear Lake in the National Park is easily accessible, very beautiful, and very popular.

 

Lake Estes in town is ringed by a lovely, wide, paved path that meanders through a bird sanctuary, beside a golf course, along the Big Thompson River, through the lakeside picnic area and on the lakeshore. It's wonderful for strolling, biking, dog walking, birding, and watching the elk that like the golf course grass. It's a town treasure and we're happy to share it with you!

 

Kent and Donna Dannen have worked in the Park and written many books about it.Their new book will give you a good idea of the many easy trails in the Park. You can purchase it for under $8 by clicking here: Best Easy Day Hikes
