Connect with Nature in Colorado
I will take you out into the mountains to experience and connect with Colorado on a gorgeous hiking trail! We will usually hike a moderate trail located within 1 hour of our morning meeting spot. This adventure is for all level hikers. Most hikes are a bit challenging, but we will go slow and the views make the adventure well worth it! Our focus will be on immersing ourselves in the vibrancy of nature, so we will take our time and admire the beauty around us! We will walk the trail and experience trees, rocks, snow, and mountain vistas from a new perspective! We can take breaks to admire wildlife and the large and small interconnected communities all around us! In the winter, we will traverse a beautiful snow covered trail up to a scenic view. Microspikes are available if there is any concern about walking in snow or ice. At the top of our trail we will take a relaxing lunch break where you can reflect, hang out, and explore! I will take tons of high quality pictures throughout the experience and send them to you in a google drive folder after your hike. Because of the varying terrain and high altitude in Colorado, the hike may be more challenging depending on your fitness level. I am here to make this a pleasant and memorable day for everyone, so don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or reservations!
GLACIER HIKE & GEOTHERMAL CAVE POOLS
(St. Mary's Glacier) Join us on a hike up to St. Mary's Glacier all year round (transportation provided from Denver or we can meet at St. Mary's). We will ascend through the stunning Colorado forest and end with a breathtaking panoramic lake view. This is one of our favorite hikes in Colorado (1.5 miles round-trip). (Indian Hot Springs) Next, we visit another historic landmark and soak in the natural geothermal cave pools, which will be perfect for our muscles after our hike and is included with the price. Due to demand of geothermal cave pools the caves sometimes get a little busy but sometimes they are completely empty. (Beau Jo's Pizza) Afterward, we will eat lunch at Beau Jo's. The building has been around since 1880 and is one of Colorado's hidden gems. Idaho Springs has a population of 1,717 people and is a gold mining town founded in 1859 during the Gold Rush. If you want an experience with little risk and a whole lot of reward, this tour is for you. I provide all the equipment, just come properly dressed and get ready to explore all of what colorful Colorado has to offer in one single day. Other things to note In order to do this hike: *Note: The geothermal caves are gender separated, but if you let us know 2 weeks prior we can reserve a private bathe or outdoor jacuzzi.
Boulder Sunrise Hike
We will start this hike early in the morning to take advantage of the cool air, morning light, and avoid crowds. Led only by moonlight, we will hike near Chautauqua Park, but to a far less popular trail that after traversing and some low-level climbing, we will sit above Boulder to watch the sunrise and take in the gorgeous views of the Flatirons and nearby foothills. My company, Cairn Outdoor Guides, offers adventures in Telluride, Denver, and Boulder, so If you'd like to save some money and support my business and its mission to guide mental health outdoors, look up Cairn Outdoor Guides where you can easily book this activity or others like rock climbing, Nordic skiing, sensory nature experiences, and cycling.

Scenic Sunrise hike through Red Rocks
Hikes will depart rain or shine : ) Uber and Lyft both come here and cost between $20-$30 one way. I will give you specific directions for our meeting place & from there we'll hit the trail at an easy pace. I'll give you some of the history of the area & show you amazing views for photos. This is one of Colorado's most beautiful hikes. If you are looking for an easy hike that is jam packed with gorgeous views, this hike is definitely for you! It's well worth rising early to take this hike, when the sun first hits the rocks - the views will take your breath away. We'll take plenty of time for picture taking & rest stops. It's a 1.5 mile hike. There is a slight elevation rise on the last 1/2 of the walk that is very doable for even novice hikers. We stop often so there is plenty of time to take in the view, take amazing photos & catch your breath. The time of the hike varies between 70 and 90 minutes depending on the size of the group. You will leave with incredible photos that your friends will envy. Along the way, if we are lucky, we will see some of the wildlife that call the park home. We'll end the hike back where we started & you can visit the amphitheater on your own while enjoying snacks & a Cold Frappuccino I provide. This is an easy to lightly moderate hike good for most skill levels. There is a gradual incline of 325 feet.
Boulder Sunset Hike
We will hike along an easy trail located less than 10 minutes outside of Boulder that will allow us to take in epic mountain views along a looped trail. After walking along the trees and wildflowers, we will sit facing west to see the sunset behind the Indian Peaks and take in the gorgeous views of mountains and wide-open spaces. My company, Cairn Outdoor Guides, offers adventures in Telluride, Denver, and Boulder, so If you'd like to save some money and support my business and its mission to guide mental health outdoors, look up Cairn Outdoor Guides where you can easily book this activity or others like rock climbing, Nordic skiing, sensory nature experiences, and cycling.

Goat Hike Along the Ol' Miners' Trail
“Valerie is an awesome host, she made the whole experience very fun and delightful. She is great at bringing the group of strangers together in such a short time. And the goats are just fantastic.” We begin our goat hike at the STAGE STOP, 20 minutes West of Boulder. After introducing ourselves, some Western lore, and the "girls" (goats), we'll start our hike of 2.4 miles through the historic living museum beginning with the Cloud City mining district. I’ll tell stores from the miners’ journals as I point out relics from their lives and mines. You will be selfing with the goats, taking panoramic pics of the mountain scenery and enjoying the mountain climb. You'll be seeing old mine portals, the school house and root cellar, stone walls, gold mine tunnels and stone cabin foundations. The land reveals many secrets of the past that I'll be sharing them with you. Along the way there is time for water and breathing. Depending on group size and weather, the famous Downhill Goat Race will conclude our adventure. Each hiker steers his/her goat down the hillside to the winner’s circle. Back to the STAGE STOP, where we began, I'll offer lunch ideas and local adventures you might enjoy. Then we bid adieu. "The hike with Valerie and her goats was the highlight of our trip. Her location and stories offer everything to experience the real beauty and history of Colorado."

You'll get the chance to taste different drinks of your choice, some of which will come at a significant discount through promotions with the bars, all throughout the night. Over the course of the crawl we'll visit at least four bars. We'll start in a bit of a more calm nature and go out with a bang, ending at one of Denver's top 'places to be' nightlife-wise. Great for groups, great for teams, and great for team-building! We'll take the planning and logistics out of the equation for you! ***Interested in a private group or crawl? Message us and we can coordinate groups up to 50 individuals!*** Please note: there might be other guests on the experience that did not book through Airbnb as well.
Hike with an Adventure Photographer
This experience is perfect for social media posts, as well as proposals, corporate events, and special occasions! You came to Denver to hike the mountains and take home memories that will last a lifetime. You want photos! However, you don't want to ask complete strangers to take photos for you. You also don't want your other photos to be all selfies! You want photos to be proud of. But, how do you begin to plan? That's where I come in! After you book an exciting hike with me, I send you out a questionnaire so I can learn what you want so I can tailor it to your needs. I call you the day before the hike to confirm everything for your exciting day out. On the day of the hike, I come to pick you up at your place in the Denver metro area an hour or so before sunrise. To document your adventure out in the mountains, I bring 2 professional DSLR cameras. Throughout the hike, I take photos of you, the group, the mountains and anything else you want. After the hike is done, you will safely arrive back at your place and will have the rest of the day to reflect on the fact that you did so much before lunch. Other things to note: -GROUPS LARGER THAN 4, PLEASE MESSAGE ME BEFORE BOOKING! -SINGLE TRAVELERS PLEASE MESSAGE PRIOR TO BOOKING, AS I WILL TRY TO MATCH UP WITH OTHER SOLO BOOKERS. FOR MOST TRIPS I DO REQUIRE A 2 PERSON MINIMUM!
Goat Hike Along the Ol' Miners' Trail
“Valerie is an awesome host, she made the whole experience very fun and delightful. She is great at bringing the group of strangers together in such a short time. And the goats are just fantastic.” We begin our goat hike at the STAGE STOP, 20 minutes West of Boulder. After introducing ourselves, some Western lore, and the "girls" (goats), we'll start our hike of 2.4 miles through the historic living museum beginning with the Cloud City mining district. I’ll tell stores from the miners’ journals as I point out relics from their lives and mines. You will be selfing with the goats, taking panoramic pics of the mountain scenery and enjoying the mountain climb. You'll be seeing old mine portals, the school house and root cellar, stone walls, gold mine tunnels and stone cabin foundations. The land reveals many secrets of the past that I'll be sharing them with you. Along the way there is time for water and breathing. Depending on group size and weather, the famous Downhill Goat Race will conclude our adventure. Each hiker steers his/her goat down the hillside to the winner’s circle. Back to the STAGE STOP, where we began, I'll offer lunch ideas and local adventures you might enjoy. Then we bid adieu. "The hike with Valerie and her goats was the highlight of our trip. Her location and stories offer everything to experience the real beauty and history of Colorado."
