There’s something truly special about exploring the wilderness under your own power. The sense of accomplishment you feel at the top of every mountain makes the views more powerful and the air a little sweeter. As a hiking guide, you get to enjoy and share this experience every day.
Why become a wilderness hiking guide? For us, the answer is simple. Becoming a hiking guide allows you to explore wild and wonderful places as you share the power of nature with people from all walks of life. And as you journey into the wilderness, both in your guide training and throughout your career, you’ll find that personal development and leadership training naturally accompany all of your encounters with nature. The realities of the wilderness and unyielding laws of nature draw out confidence, purpose-driven actions and personal accountability to a degree that no other setting can match.
That’s why we keep preparation for remote back-country trips and high level wilderness skills at the core of our guide training. Our goal is to empower you to explore nature to the full, and to safely lead others on authentic wilderness experiences where they can learn from nature, too.
