Backpacking

Our backpacking and trekking trips are a great way to explore Mt. Shasta and the Shasta-Trinity National Forest. New for 2026 we are launching our Mt. Shasta Basecamp Treks. These non technical hikes will take us to the upper mountain without the commitment of making a summit climb. Our basecamps are spectacular settings with fresh snowmelt drinking water, amazing views, and perched at the toe of Shasta’s impressive glaciers. This is perfect opportunity visit the mountain and learn about it’s unique geology and explore the stunning landscape.

Our PCT backpacking trips feature a beautiful section of the Pacific Crest Trail, a bucket-list adventure for many—a chance to experience the legendary route from Mexico to Canada. While a thru-hike takes months, we offer a 3-day journey on some of its most breathtaking and iconic miles, perfect for those seeking a taste of this epic trail. Camp next to stunning alpine lakes, feast on perfectly curated meals, and learn from seasoned experts how to backpack in the Wilderness.
