Cache La Poudre-North Park Scenic and Historic Byway Details

This 101-mile journey starts in Fort Collins and takes you through the Rawah Wilderness and Rocky Mountain National Park up towards Cameroon Pass (which is known for its dramatic sweeping views overlooking the basin of North Park). Stretches of the drive snake along the Cache La Poudre River, which on a warm day, is dotted with white water rafters and fisherman. Keep your eyes peel for creatures like bison, deer, antelope, moose that live in the grassy pastures and alpine meadows. And if you are lucky while you drive by the canyons, you might be able to spot a few bighorn sheep frolicking around the rocks.
