The Colorado River Headwaters Scenic Byway is located in north-central Colorado. It follows the Colorado River from its headwaters in Rocky Mountain National Park, past Grand Lake and Granby, through Hot Sulphur Springs and Kremmling, to State Bridge, on Colorado Highway 131.
The byway reflects Colorado's unique geology, scenery, wildlife and mountain ecology. Elk, deer, birds and moose can be seen along the route. Towering mountain ranges and wilderness areas are visible from the highway between Rocky Mountain National Park and Granby.
