What To Expect

INCLUDES TRANSPORTATION from Downtown Denver, Golden and Boulder locations.

Private small group tours.

Our professional guides will fill you with more than a spectacular day of snow-hiking, we'll fill you with Colorado's rich history, folklore and more. We may even get lucky and see some wildlife. We'll bring all the gear. Join us today and discover the Rocky Mountain Way.

This snowshoe hike is a good beginner level and accessible for most people of reasonable fitness levels.  We will reach a top elevation of 8,764 feet so oxygen will remain plentiful in this natural mountain environment.  We will travel a total of 4.7 miles with a net up & down elevation gain of 365 feet.  The average grade is only 3% with intermittent sections of steeper terrain.

We keep these groups very small for a closer connection to nature.

Stats:

365 feet of up/down elevation gain
Average grade 3%
Max grade 11% steepness

Activity name

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
