Trail and Road closure updates

4/29/2015

Good news, Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail is scheduled to reopen on Friday, May 1. The llamas are currently packing on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday, but trips are subject to change.

Not so good news for those that love to hike Alum Cave Trail. Just a reminder that Alum Cave Bluff Trail and associated parking areas will be closed starting Monday, May 4 . They will be closed Monday through Thursday for trail reconstruction through the Trails Forever Program. Guests are strongly encouraged to car pool and get to the trails early to secure a parking area. For additional information about the closure see the following link: http://www.nps.gov/grsm/planyourvisit/alum-cave-closure-faqs.htm .
Please call the reservation office if you are a guest scheduled to hike during this time and have any questions regarding the closure or parking.

Thank you, for the quick response. I'm sure this will help others staying overnight on Sunday as well. I can't wait to be on the Mtn. again.

We are coming up Rainbow Falls Trail on Sunday 5/3 - heading down Trillium Gap Trial on Monday. We planned it that way hoping to see the llamas.. Should we flip our plan? Do you know if the llamas will be heading up Trillium this Sunday?

We came up Rainbow and down Bullhead. Bullhead was beautiful with views and tons of wildflowers. If Alum is closed, don't forget this route! thanks to Walt for suggesting Bullhead. you all are awesome!

Can anyone tell me the reason for the recently installed electronic gates at the second parking lot to Rainbow Falls? Appears that this parking area will no longer be available to the general public but only to those with a card or previous clearance to access. Thank you in advance!
