About

I love being on trails. And there’s something thrilling about hiking the trails at your own pace with the people you want to be with. Stumble upon a tantalizing swim hole? Or run into some unexpected ruins with fascinating history? You have the flexibility to experience how you want to. Whether you’re a weekend warrior hitting up local trails or a seasoned backpacker meticulously planning your next expedition, I hope you can get inspired, learn something new, and try my trips!

What is a self-guided trip?

Hike at your own pace without a guide so you can explore independently. You'll be provided easy-to-follow trail navigation.

What makes these trips different?

Not only are these itineraries self-guided so you can lead your own adventures, they're also uniquely curated so that you can hike point-to-point while staying in comforts of hotels. If desired, your luggage will move to your next hotel while you're on the trail so you can just hike with your day pack and boots! All your transportation is coordinated as well so you don't need to rent a car.

What is a point-to-point hike?

This means starting at one point of a trail and walking or hiking continuously to the other end (sometimes called a thru-hike). The alternatives are hiking out-and-back or a loop, which both you start and end at the same place. Typically point-to-point requires carrying your carrying your camping tent/equipment (backpacking), having transportation at both starting and end points, or hiking from and into lodgings you can spend the night. Check out my blog for more details.

Why a point-to-point hike?

It's a different experience having a continuous journey, you spend more time to see more of the trails than hiking out-and-back.

Why are there different packages?
