Overview

Mobile ticket
Do you want to go for a hike but don't know which trail to pick, and don't want to get lost in the forest? We make things easy for you by taking you to a beautiful trail that wouldn't be easy to find on your own, and we'll make sure you have a stress-free time, enjoying the natural beauty of the Rocky Mountains.
We'll hike for 1.5-2 hours in the Rocky Mountains while the sun sets. We'll see pretty views, probably see some wildlife, take a few snack and water breaks, learn about the wildflowers and trees, make new friends, get some exercise and breathe in the fresh mountain air! In the winter months, we'll provide "Yak Traks" that you put on your shoes to improve the traction on ice and snow.
The hike will be easy to easy for people in good physical shape, but it can be very challenging for people who do not exercise regularly and are not used to altitude. The elevation will be somewhere between 6,000 and 8,000 ft. Min group size is 2 hikers.

5.00The sunset was stunning. Well worth the few inclines we climbed. Most of the hike is on flat ground. It was just beautiful.
Great evening hike for a quick escape from downtown.

5.00Great hike just outside of Denver. Was as described. We meet at the hotel and got a ride with the hiking guide to the trail head. The trail was well maintained, and was slightly difficult no technically parts a just a few steep parts. Great views of Denver.
Beautiful sunset hike!

5.00Robin and her team were amazing! They were so accommodating to everything our group needed. We had a group of 6 - 55+ year olds mostly in shape for our age and the hike was perfect! We had amazing weather and it being at Sunset made it perfect!
Fantastic moderate hiking with wonderful guide Adrienne!

5.00We had a fantastic time hiking with Adrienne our guide. It was like she was one of our group! This hike was great for medium level fitness and coming from 6ft below sea level to 8,000 ft above was not as hard as anticipated!!! Loved this hike!!
