Things To Do
Don't miss out on exploring the National Park. With the holiday weekend, we suggest early mornings or late afternoons to avoid the crowds. The shuttle bus system in the park is great! The elk will be starting the rut as well and Moraine Park is the best place to see them. Find a great parking spot, bring a bottle of wine and a blanket and wait for the show.
