Route and length guidance

Neither Colorado DOT nor the NPS publishes a length or trailer limit for the two canyon routes into Estes Park, US-36 via Lyons and US-34 through Big Thompson Canyon. Check COtrip for closures and chain or traction law status before you set out. [Colorado DOT] [NPS] [COtrip (Colorado DOT road conditions)]

Inside Rocky Mountain National Park, Old Fall River Road is closed to vehicles over 25 feet and to all trailers, and Bear Lake Road west of the Park & Ride is closed to vehicles over 21 feet. Trail Ridge Road has no separate length limit, but it closes to through travel from about mid-October to late May. [NPS] [NPS]

Pick a rental that fits the campground you've booked: each park and Forest Service campground has its own official maximum, listed below. [NPS] [USDA Forest Service]
