Description
Dream Lake is a high alpine lake located in Rocky Mountain National Park in northern Colorado, located east of the continental divide. The lake is accessed via the popular Bear Lake trail head and is at the base of Hallett's Peak, and is well known for its stunning views caused by surrounding steep cliffs, and a popular destination for casual hiking.
Dream Lake is one of the most popular hikes in Estes Park. The trail to Dream Lake passes Nymph Lake and has prominent views of Longs Peak, Glacier Gorge, Flattop Mountain, and Hallett Peak.
Dream Lake was named for its dreamlike qualities; the way it reflects its surroundings like a mirror image, and how it looks different from every outlook.
