Most of RMNP has the regular fee of 35.00 or if you have an annual or senior pass its free. There are certain areas like: Grand Lake or Bear Lake that you will need to go online and pay for a Timed Pass. The others you can peruse at your leisure. Going in October, you should be good with the crowds, as we went in June of this year and it wasn't to bad.
If I enter through Grand Lake before 9 am, do I need a timed permit pass? There does not seem to be any available for reservations. I know we can wait until the night before to obtain one, but we have a tour to make at 4 pm in Estes Park.
A:
The website says permits are only required between 9:00-2:00. If you enter at Grand Lake side before 9:00 and stay within the park you’ll be okay to get to Estes Park for your tour.
Do I need a timed entry for Rocky mountains national park if I have reserved the hiker's shuttle?
