Missed the Festival?
Traditionalists will want to make certain that their holiday activities take place on the holiday itself, so there is a very real possibility that you may have missed the Wine and Chocolate festival. But that doesn’t mean you have to skip the sweet step, as Estes Park offers a wide variety of candy and chocolate shops, including Laura’s Fine Candies, located at 129 E Elkhorn Avenue. Offering everything from popcorn to toffee to the sweetest chocolates, your Valentine’s gift is one that will keep giving all day long.
Sip and Savor

Providing gourmet foods to enjoy along with your sipping activities and periodically providing live music as an accompaniment, your romantic adventures can continue back at your Voyago love nest when you purchase your favorite flavors to carry home with you. Tasting even better when paired with the chocolates you purchased from Laura’s Fine Candies, this savory adventure will be one of your favorites.
Take the Fun Outside
The Estes Par landscape is a sight to behold during the winter months and snowshoeing is an amazing way to get up close and personal. Kirk’s Mountain Adventures offers guided snowshoeing tours, taking guests to the most beautiful parts of the countryside while providing the snowshoes we are pretty sure you didn’t pack in your luggage. Choose between a 3-, 6-, or 8-hour trip and fall in love with panoramic views, pristine countryside, and the sparkle in your favorite hiking partner’s eyes!
The Quickest Way to the Heart
Valentine’s Day would not be complete without a special holiday dinner, and Bird & Jim, 915 Moraine Avenue, celebrates love with the tastiest of meals. Offering a quite intriguing origins story (although we doubt it will compare to yours) and a menu filled with all-American favorites that will be a perfect complement to your love story, the Cast Iron section may be where you want to stop, especially after your three-hour or longer snowshoeing tour of Estes Park. Offering an extensive wine menu and an innovative cocktail one, we can’t help but think the dessert portion, starring a sweetly wonderful Apple Shortcake, will be the quickest way to each other’s hearts.
