Just Go to Rocky Mountain National Park - Hiking the Emerald Lake, Lake Haiyaha and Alberta Falls Loop Trail

March 18, 2018 • Colorado • Rocky Mountain National Park

As you may know, Rocky Mountain National Park is one of the most popular parks in the National Park system, receiving nearly 4.5 million visitors in 2017. If you’re like us, you’ll be longing to find places to hike that are away from the crowds. The trail to Emerald Lake is notoriously crowded, as is the trail to Alberta Falls. However, if you connect the two with a trek to the out-of-the-way Lake Haiyaha, you’ll find the quiet that you were likely envisioning when you planned your trip to the mountains.
