Advanced reservations to visit Mount Evans and Brainard Lake will open in May on Recreation.gov. These are some of the most visited recreation areas in the National Forests and draw hundreds of thousands of visitors from around the globe.
Visitors can select a reservation time slot from multiple windows throughout the day. The reservations come with a $2 fee plus the standard fees outlined below. The reservations apply only to drivers, not hikers or bicyclists. Mount Evans is the 14th tallest fourteener — or mountain with a summit above 14,000 feet — in Colorado. The Mount Evans Highway is a 14-mile drive from Echo Lake to the summit of the mountain.
