Getting to Estes Park from Denver
Driving yourself
Driving from Denver or Denver International Airport to Estes Park typically takes about one and a half to two hours, depending on traffic and weather. This is the most flexible option and works especially well if you plan to explore beyond downtown or spend time driving through Rocky Mountain National Park.
Shuttle service from Denver
If you prefer not to drive, Estes Park Shuttle offers scheduled transportation from Denver International Airport and select Front Range locations directly into Estes Park.
This is a great option if you want a car-free arrival and plan to stay near downtown.
Bustang from Denver Union Station
Another option is Bustang, which offers a scenic, stress-free ride from Denver’s Union Station.
Bustang is a good fit for visitors who prefer not to drive mountain roads and want to enjoy the journey as part of the experience. On standard routes, Bustang typically allows about one hour of leisure time in Estes Park, which is enough for a short stroll, light shopping, grabbing a bite to eat, or taking in the views before heading back to Denver.
It’s always a good idea to call Bustang or check their website to see if seasonal routes or special itineraries are available that allow for a longer stop.
