No matter the question, hiking is always the answer…
…especially in North America where the landscapes are beautiful, and the national parks are plenty. No, seriously. You’ve got Denali National Park and Kenai Fjords National Park in Alaska, Bryce Canyon in Utah and about a million in California (think Yosemite, Joshua Tree and Death Valley National Park just to name a few). But we’ve barely scratched the surface. On our North America walking trips, marvel at naturally formed rocky monuments, discover scenery too breathtaking not to share on every social media platform and make some of the best travel memories of your life – feet first.
Our North America walking and trekking trips
North America walking & trekking highlights
Explore the Canadian Rockies
If you’re thinking about escaping the stresses of everyday life, head to Canada and get lost in the natural wonders of the Canadian Rockies. Alongside your certified hiking guide, set out on a number of spectacular trails from the Valley of the Five Lakes to Bow Glacier Falls and treat your eyes (and camera roll) to the very best Mother Nature has to offer on our 8-day Canadian Rockies adventure.
Tackle the Appalachian Trail
Few trails in North America are as iconic as the Appalachian Trail and on our 3-day tour in North Carolina, you’ll get to experience the spectacular summits for yourself. Dine on a camp-cooked dinner at the summit of Shining Rock. Take in the breathtaking scenery at a roadside stop at the cascading Looking Glass Falls. Hike up Cold Mountain and treat yourself to stunning views you’ll remember forever.
Discover the beauty of Yosemite
Chances are you’ve seen a picture or two of Yosemite National Park, but nothing compares to seeing its beauty in real life on our 6 day hiking tour. From the iconic Half Dome rock formation and the giant sequoia trees to the majestic Cathedral Lakes, this park is full of naturally surreal surprises. The best part? You get to explore it all on foot by day and rest in a cosy mountain lodge once night falls.
Adventure through Yellowstone
When you think of Yellowstone, your mind might automatically start picturing the neo-Western drama series of the same name, but you should really be thinking of the epic national park in Wyoming. Spot wildlife you’ve only ever seen in books, admire cascading waterfalls on lesser-known trails and let the gentle sound of the Yellowstone River send you to sleep on our 4-day camping adventure.

For someone who feared hiking hours a day and worried my eighteen year old son would dislike the trip, things couldn’t have gone better. Everything was well thought out and organized. Hotels were beautiful and dinners out memorable. Our leader was kind, patient, knowledgeable, and we all enjoyed the four day adventure. I can’t stop thinking about it. My son asked me at the airport, “where to next?” I’m so happy I stepped out of my comfort zone and created this special memory with him. I’m so grateful.

Absolutely loved this trip. Everything from the location to the hikes, the guide, the fellow hikers was great! Will definitely do another Intrepid / WildLand Trekking tour again in the near future!

I highly recommend this trip if you want to visit Yosemite and hike in a group. This trip includes the meadow, high country, and the Mist Trail (just to name a few highlights). We went in October when the trails weren’t as crowded compared to the summer and saw some fall foliage. Lana was a great guide. She brought tons of knowledge, patience, and enthusiasm to the group. I’m glad I did this trip.

I’d definitely recommend this Yosemite hiking trip as it gives you time to properly explore the park and see all that it has to offer. The hikes weren’t too challenging which made for nice days out. We were busy from early in the morning until the evening so we definitely got our moneys worth. Our guide was excellent and made the experience very enjoyable.

Really enjoyed the trip - Lana our guide was fantastic, and we saw a lot of the park with a busy (but manageable) itinerary. Our group (reasonably fit people from their 20s to their 70s) were able to go at our own speeds, so we were all able to enjoy the hikes.
