Parkview Mountain is the highest summit of the Rabbit Ears Range in the Rocky Mountains of North America. The mountain is on the Continental Divide in Routt National Forest about 3 miles (4.8 km) southwest of Willow Creek Pass.
From the summit a climber can see both Middle Park to the south and North Park to the North, hence the name of the Peak.
