Mountain Adventure Packages

The raw beauty of the American West inspires millions of people to travel to its national parks and public lands every year to take advantage of a multitude of recreational opportunities. Colorado alone is home to four national parks, as well as forty-two state parks. A popular destination for thrill-seekers and weekend warriors alike, Colorado’s diverse landscapes inspire something in everyone. 

Colorado Wilderness Rides and Guides is passionate about sharing the beauty and importance of America’s public lands with everyone. Experience the Colorado most tourists don’t get to see, from the people who know it best. Our custom and private guided trips will take you into the pristine, untouched corners of Colorado’s landscapes. We offer a variety of ways to experience the Rocky Mountains, no matter the season. Backcountry skiing in the spring, backpacking in the summer, mountain biking in the fall, snowshoeing in the winter, you name it, we probably offer it. Whether you want a multi-day backpacking trek into the Rocky Mountain backcountry or just a two-hour stroll through Boulder’s trail systems, each trip is fully customizable to suit all ages, skill levels, time restrictions, or other needs. 

Clients can choose from a multitude of options regarding our multi-day adventures. Clients can choose to stay with our local partners in Boulder where each day they can stay in a nice hotel and take care of breakfasts and dinners from local eateries while taking daily trips with us. Or another popular option is to let us take you camping for your trip as you stay at one of our basecamps under the stars where all meals are included.

For those looking to get a taste of the Colorado backcountry but don’t have a lot of time, check out our half-day or full-day trips. Hike, bike, climb, fish, or raft with your group or as an individual. We can even combine two half-day activities into one full day of outdoor fun. If you’re really looking to get your shoes dirty, we offer multi-day and multi-sport excursions. A lot of our clients choose to turn backpacking trips into multi-sport adventures by adding in a peak summit or fly fishing. 

Our expert guides have lived, worked, and played in Colorado for years and will share their knowledge of the local area. Additionally, each of our guides is trained in wilderness medicine and backcountry safety, so you can head into the backcountry knowing you’re in good hands. They’ll make sure your custom and private adventure is safe, smooth, and tailored to fit your needs.
