Guided Group Hike in the Rockies from Denver

We typically meet at Huckleberry Roasters on Pecos Street. They have amazing coffee and burritos so we recommend arriving early to have breakfast. This coffee shop is 1 mile northwest of downtown so people can walk there, scooter, or take a short Uber. We will carpool to a hiking trail within an hour drive from Denver, and we'll hike for 2-4 hours in the Rocky mountains. We can fit up to 7 people in our vehicle and we do recommend driving yourself if possible.

Your starting point is Denver, and then we'll head west to the Rocky Mountains. It will be a 30-60 minute drive and then a 2-4 hour hike, depending on the trail and group's pace.

For those who are staying closer to the mountains or west of downtown, we can also pickup hikers at the Origin Red Rocks Hotel. The Origin Red Rocks Hotel is a modern, adventure-focused hotel located just minutes from Red Rocks Amphitheater in Golden, Colorado. It’s designed as the “official hotel of Red Rocks,” offering amenities for concert-goers, hikers, and outdoor enthusiasts, including gear storage, shuttle options, and stylish, comfortable rooms. We highly recommend this hotel for those wanting to stay outside Denver and closer to the mountains.

We'll pass through the charming town of Morrison. Morrison is a small historic town just west of Denver, known for its charming main street, red sandstone cliffs, and Old West feel. It sits at the base of the foothills and is the gateway to the world-famous Red Rocks Amphitheatre. The town is rich in geology and paleontology, with dinosaur footprints and fossil sites throughout the nearby Morrison Formation. Visitors enjoy restaurants, shops, and creekside views along Bear Creek. Despite its small size, Morrison attracts millions of visitors each year for concerts, hiking, and Colorado history.

Red Rocks Amphitheater is a world-famous outdoor concert venue tucked between towering red sandstone monoliths in Morrison, Colorado. Naturally formed over millions of years, its perfect acoustics and dramatic scenery make it one of the most iconic music venues on the planet. The amphitheater is part of Red Rocks Park, where visitors can hike, explore geological formations, and learn about the area’s ancient history. Since opening in the 1940s, it has hosted legendary performances and continues to be a must-see destination for music lovers and travelers. We drive by Red Rocks and can stop upon special request if time allows.
