I had an amazing time hiking in the foothills of the Rockies. It was a great way to get outside before attending a conference in Denver. Loved that snacks and transportation was provided, the guide was super knowledgeable, the hiking pace was perfect for those new to high elevations, and the view was to die for.

Heed the advice as to how to prepare if you are not used to high elevation, like those of us from Nashville.

Highly recommend this hike

Excellent experience and Excellent trail guide. She was very knowledgeable and she knows the trail very well. We also met others and we worked together as a team to ensure everyone's safety and enjoyment! Can't wait to go hiking again!

This was a great hike with our tour guide Lauren. This hike was not too taxiing and Lauren tailored the hike to everyone’s comfort level

Michelle_B, May 2026
Could not have asked for a better experience! I've hiked a few trails in the Rockies, but this one has had the best views, hands down. Lauren was an amazing guide; super friendly, laid back, very mindful of the pace for us closer to sea level folks, and the best part - a fellow Scorpio! Definitely a great value, and I'm looking forward to booking again during my next visit to Denver.

A Taste of the Rockies

NancyM, May 2026
Lauren took us on a hike that gave us a perfect “taste of the Rockies”. Moderate to easy level hiking and beautiful views along the way! Also got some wonderful info on local plants and animals and saw plenty of wildlife along the route!

Easy paced hike with a great view at the pinnacle.

Jane_K, May 2026
Lauren is a great tour leader, who is willing to adjust the pace of the hike to accommodate those of us from out pf town who may not be acclimated to the high altitudes in the rockies. All in all, it was a great hike with spectacular views at the peak.

A perfect hiking experience

Grant_D, May 2026
Lauren was kind, prepared, and professional. She got us up the mountain and back again in a very relaxed and natural way. Along the way, she shared with us fascinating information about the flora and fauna of the area. It was a perfect hiking experience.

Great Local Hike w/ Beautiful Views

Daphnie_M, May 2026
Had an amazing experience on this hike. As a solo female traveler, I felt comfortable the entire time. Lauren was friendly, fun, and made the whole experience easy and enjoyable. The views were beautiful and the trail felt more like a hidden local gem than a crowded tourist attraction.

Great Short Escape

Christopher_G, Apr 2026
This was our first trip to Denver. It was a short trip and we wanted to experience the city and the surrounding area. This hike is a short drive from downtown and feels like you are hundreds of miles away. Almost everyone we encountered on the trail were locals and they were very friendly. Lauren, the guide, made the trip very special with all of her knowledge of the nature we would have never noticed on our own.

Great Outdoor Adventure

Natasha_P, Apr 2026
It was a pleasure hiking with Lauren. She was very understanding of the change of elevation and slowed down to accommodate. She shared interesting facts about the area, trees, and plants. Lauren also shared her fav restaurants and lounges in the area which were great suggestions! Thanks for making our Sunday a funday!

Lauren was very knowledgeable and friendly! We were very happy and pleased to have supported a local, woman-owned business! :)

Sister getaway!

Yvette_C, Feb 2026
Hiking in Rocky Mountain National Park with my sister was such a beautiful experience. The views were unreal and the air felt so fresh and peaceful. The trail was the perfect mix of challenging and fun, and our guide made everything easy to follow. Definitely a core memory kind of day. Would absolutely do it again.

Felt like a local for a few hours!

Adjoa_K, Feb 2026
My partner and I had an amazing time! Lauren was very responsive and kind. Her pacing was great even for an amateur like myself and really appreciated her guidance and insights! Loved the nature facts along the way. My partner who’s more adventurous than I am had a blast and I’m glad Lauren was able to make his birthday special.

Lauren was super friendly & personable from start to finish. She was knowledgeable and fun! If you want a low key, chill hike, check it out!

Excellent Tour Guides - Highly Recommend

Scott_W, Jan 2026
While this review is long overdue. It is by no means a reflection of our experience. We booked the tour around July 4th and ended up having a personal tour for just me and my spouse. Although we didn’t make it to the top, our tour guides (Mickey and Andrew) were exceptional. They were patient and extremely understanding, when the elevation proved to be just too much. Despite your skill level, age or ability, this tour will cater to your needs, make you feel comfortable and provide wonderful experience, as they did for us.

The perfect morning hike!

Eric_K, Jan 2026
Great family friendly hike, and excellent tour guide! Was a good balance of hiking and views without battling crowded trails.

Great views

Daphna_P, Dec 2025
Such a great guide. So knowledgeable and personable. Great hike with facts learned on the at. Made sure everyone felt comfortable with the pace and views were great at the top. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend- a perfect morning!

Kristy_M, Dec 2025
Lauren was FANTASTIC! From meeting us to taking us to the hike and the hike itself we were so impressed. She was very knowledgeable and was understanding of our different physical capabilities in hiking. 10/10 would book with her and this company again!

Great experience with Lauren

Book the Hike!

Samantha_C, Nov 2025
We had such a great experience on the trail. Lauren was very knowledgeable, attentive, and welcoming, sharing so much information about the Colorado trails and the state/area in general. I would recommend taking a hike with her, and I can't wait to book another with her next time I'm there!

Excellent Hike!

Albert_C, Nov 2025
If you have a few hours to spare, this was a great opportunity to get out of downtown Denver and see some of the mountains in the area. Andrew was our guide and was very knowledgeable about the trail, as well as the area. The trail itself was not too onerous and we all got terrific exercise in the process. We did a quick drive-by of Red Rocks and Dinosaur Ridge which was a good bonus. Highly recommend!

Highly Recommend!

Lindsey_G, Nov 2025
Highly recommend this hiking tour! Our guide was Andrew, he was extremely knowledgable and made us feel really comfortable. At home, we live at sea level and we were a bit nervous with hiking in the high altitudes of Denver's mountains. He moved at the perfect pace, knew when the group needed to take breaks to catch our breath and got us to the top safely! The view is absolutely incredible and Andrew took amazing photos of everyone. Highly recommend this tour!

Best Hike + Guide

Wendy_R, Oct 2025
This hike just got better and better as we navigated through the trail. It was a moderate, peaceful and insanely beautiful adventure. Mickey was THE BEST! As someone who doesn’t really hike, I would do this again without question.
