Welcome
ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK
The Rocky Mountains are the main mountain range in the Cordillera system, dividing the territory of North America into western and eastern parts. Naturally, the American Continental Divide passes here, from here the water basins of the Pacific and Atlantic oceans begin. One of the largest rivers, Colorado, flows right there.
Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado is considered the most popular ski resort in the United States, and is also famous for the rare plants and animals that inhabit it.
Information
Rocky Mountain National Park has two distinct and completely different climatic zones. To the left of the Rocky Mountains, the climate is very humid and this leads to a large amount of woodland, and to the right of them, on the eastern slopes facing the Great Plains, the air is rather dry, the terrain is arid, and glaciers and snow caps can be seen on the mountain tops.
Colorado is called a colorful state in the USA. And in autumn it is really colorful here. The mountains are colorful - red, sandy or greenish. You can make sure of this by driving along the road leading through the Rocky Mountain National Park.
