Fall River is a body of water that begins in Rocky Mountain National Park and flows down into the small quaint town of Estes Park. It stretches out 17 miles through the town with areas of babbling brooks and is surrounded by beautiful nature. As it flows further into Estes Park, it develops into a confluence with the Big Thompson River. From visiting the Riverwalk to spending the night right by it, get ready to take advantage of all that Fall River in Estes Park has to offer!
Estes Park Riverwalk
The Estes Park Riverwalk is nestled right in the heart of the downtown area. There, you’ll have great access to shopping, dining, and beautiful views of the river. You’re only a few feet away from the flowing waters while you browse the boutiques and art galleries! Stop in at one of the many restaurants along the riverwalk and enjoy a bite with a great view too.

Also located on the riverwalk, this area is a serene spot to soak up the beauty of the river. The plaza is surrounded by grand bronze statues and water features.

There’s also a unique sensory garden dedicated to stimulating the senses with its array of plants and instruments.
