There are three lovely falls along the three mile Oezel Hike in Rocky Mountain National Park. The Wild Basin Park Entrance Station is 12.5 miles south of Estes Park on Highway 7. Keep an eye out for a small sign because this remote entrance is easy to miss.

After entering the park, there is a short 2.2-mile drive on a one-lane dirt road past campsites and the Finch Lake Trailhead. The park recommends a 4wd vehicle, but we see compact cars use this road often with no problems. If you meet someone on the road, there are several pull-offs you can take to let them pass by. (Note: During the winter season, this road closes at the parking lot 1-mile prior to the Wild Basin Trailhead.)

When you reach the Wild Basin Trailhead, there is ample parking, a ranger station, and restrooms. Don't worry if you skip the restrooms. There's a rustic privy about halfway to Ouzel Falls on the trail.
