Kawuneeche Valley,[1][2][3] also known as Kawuneeche[3][4] or Coyote Valley,[3][4] is a marshy valley of the Colorado River near its beginning. It is located on the west side of Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado. The axis of the valley runs almost directly north to south.[2] Kawuneeche means "valley of the coyote" in Arapaho language and there is a Coyote Valley Trail head by US Route 34 in the western half of the park.[5][6] Coyotes still live here, as do wapiti (elk), mule deer, moose (introduced in 1978 into nearby North Park), and mountain lion.[5][2]
Along the main part of valley runs the lower section of the Trail Ridge Road - the highest continuous paved road in the United States.[7][2]
