Spectacular hiking in the Rocky Mountain alpine
 During the
warm summer months we offer expertly-guided four-night hiking holidays in the
mountains that surround the ranch.These holidays are designed for those who like to stretch their legs in the wilderness but prefer to return to a luxury cabin, a hot shower and good food at the end of each day. Mountain vistas and alpine wildflowers
Remote, imperious, cruel and dazzling, they are every bit as spectacular as the Rockies in Banff or Jasper, and without the crowds. For our hikes, we use one of our off-road vehicles for the ascent into the alpine.  That way we get
to spend the day ridge-walking and admiring the
spectacular views rather than hiking up through the forest from the
valley
floor.During July the snow finally melts up high, except in a few shaded areas, and wildflowers - Indian paintbrush, wild lupins and many others - blanket the meadows. At this time it is also possible to see lonely high-elevation bears. All our hiking guides are local and know the area around the ranch well. They are also trained bear guides.
Summer itinerary
After breakfast we head up into the high country. This is an unforgettable
experience, redolent of the times before the settlers arrived in the
new world.
Lunch is a picnic of home-made sandwiches, fruit and biscuits that we take along on our day tour. We especially like to hike high-mountain ridges and alpine meadows off the beaten track.Dinner may be a sit-down affair in the main house or a barbeque by the river.
