• Caribou Ranch Open Space Parking & Trailhead - Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and immerse yourself in the Rockies with our guided hiking tour. During the summer, it’s an ideal way to escape the Denver heat, as mountain temperatures are typically 20 degrees cooler, often ranging in the 60s and 70s. As winter approaches, we offer snowshoes or micro spikes to ensure safe trekking.

We provide several options based on the season:

Alpine Lake Hike: Located just an hour away, this 4-mile round-trip hike takes approximately 3 hours and features breathtaking views and cascading waterfalls in the summer.

Bison Reserve Hike: A 35-minute drive leads to a 3.5-mile, easier hike with spectacular views and an opportunity to see bison up close, separated only by a fence.

Historic Mining Area Hike: About an hour from Denver, this 4.5-mile trail winds through an old mining area, once dubbed the “Switzerland of America,” offering beautiful scenery along the way.

We have several other hikes available depending on the season.

Our small, adaptable tours allow us to select the best hike for the day, taking into account the weather and the group’s energy level. We provide sandwiches, snacks, water, and hiking poles.
