Thank you!
Going to try Garden of the gods and Pikes peak on the way in. Maybe if we have time and its not to far out the way try to see Royal Gorge also.
Any recommendations for those that did hikes in RMNP for beginners?

Mount Evans
Pearl St Mall

Good luck

It's been more than ten years since I've been to RMNP, but I remember enjoying the hike past Bear Lake to Emerald Lake.
Emerald Lake hike, easy 3.5 miles
And the Mills Lake hike was a bit longer, but my favorite.
Mills Lake- about 5 miles, gorgeous
Leave early-ish, pack a lunch, and have a picnic by the lake when you get there. Stunning.
I think both of those hikes can be done by beginners.
(When we went in early June many years ago, there was still a good bit of snow up around Emerald Lake. Just FYI. Can't remember when you said you were going.)
