At Escape Adventures we really love what we do. For us, the adventure begins with a favorite trail system, mountain, or national park, and a dream committed to many hours of research and development. Then, because true joy in adventure is sharing it, we reach beyond the masses to the very specific, very unique market who we know will be up to the adventure. But with so many choices, how do you decide which tour is right for you?

Choosing the Right Mountain Bike Tour
|
Mountain Biking is something we love to share. It provides an opportunity to see the back country in a unique and exciting way and lets you experience a connection with nature. Our tours are designed to accommodate many different riders at various skill levels.
Three easy steps to picking a mountain bike trip:
- Determine when you can travel. Our trips are scheduled when the weather is the most favorable in that area, so your availability can help to narrow down the choices.
- Pick a few trips that interest you within this timeframe. Read each trip description to get a feel for what each trip has to offer.
- Finally, call us for availability and specific questions. Our staff and guides are available to help. You can request an itinerary or speak with a tour guide for more details on your trips of interest. If you are traveling with friends, we can suggest a trip that suits everyone.
On our tour schedule page you may notice that the mountain bike tours are also rated 1 through 10. Please see the fitness and technical scales on our trip ratings page and look for the graphics on our itineraries and trip pages.

Choosing the Right Road Cycling Tour
|
 Are you interested in mountains and coastlines, culture or solitude? The first step in picking a road cycling tour is choosing your ideal destination. You
can
be
assured
that
we
have
chosen
the
best
riding
on
the
most
scenic
roads
in
the
country.
Our
road
tours
are
rated
by
the
mileage
and
overall
fitness
level
needed
to
complete
the
rides.
The
rating
is
based
on
an
average
of
each
day's
climbs,
elevation
bases,
and
ride
lengths.
For
example,
one
trip
with
longer
rides
followed
by
a
rest
day
may
be
rated
the
same
as
a
trip
with
shorter
daily
rides
and
no
rest
days.
We
understand
that
mileage
is
a
concern,
so
if
you
enjoy
an
easier
pace
and
prefer
scenery
to
speed,
a
trip
with
less
than
250
miles
is
a
great
choice.
If
you
enjoy
a
good
century
every
now
and
then,
look
forward
to
the
climbs,
and
love
a
good
workout,
then
a
trip
with
more
than
250
miles
is
your
best
choice.
You
may
notice
that
some
tours
list
a
range
of
miles
(ie.
200-250).
On
these
trips
we
offer
optional
rides
that
can
increase
the
overall
distance
of
the
trip.
Regardless
of
mileage
and
hills,
each
tour
is
supported
by
our
professional
and
attentive
guides
riding
with
the
group
and
driving
the
support
vehicle.
We
are
happy
to
answer
your
questions
and
help
you
select
a
trip
based
on
your
experience
and
interests.

Choosing the Right Hiking Tour
|
We have been outfitting the West for nearly two decades, and we're excited to show you what we've found. There's no better way to appreciate the beauty and solitude of nature than by foot. Most of our tours are designed to accommodate all levels, but we do offer a select few that are more difficult based on the distances and elevation changes. Hiking tours are rated on three levels:
- Easy: Gentle terrain at a leisurely pace.
- Moderate: Longer hikes with mild scrambling.
- Strenuous: Extensive mileage at an athletic pace.
Call
us
to
request
a
daily
itinerary
with
more
details
or
to
speak
to
a
guide.

Choosing the Right Multi-Sport Tour
|
Our multi-sport tours offer a variety of exciting activities such as rafting, biking, kayaking, hiking and rock climbing. Multi-sport touring is great for people who like to sample a bit of everything an area has to offer. Just about anyone who has a taste for the outdoors and is inclined to try different activities will enjoy our trips. Specially trained and experienced tour leaders will ensure a great time for guests of all ability levels. Each Escape multi-sport trip is slightly different than the
next,
perfectly
tuned
into
what
each
destination
has
to
offer.
Whether
you
choose
a
hike
and
bike
tour
with
a
bit
of
rock
climbing,
or
a
trip
with
canyoneering
and
rafting,
we're
sure
you'll
love
it.
Just
ask
yourself
where
you
would
like
to
go
and
what
type
of
activities
interest
you.
