Colorado Off Road Tours

ATV tours put visitors in the driver’s seat. Cover miles of mountainous terrain while enjoying breathtaking views of Colorado’s open space on one of Glenwood’s off road tours. Guides lead riders through valleys and over ridges; through sage flats, forests, aspen groves and dark timber. Glenwood Springs ATV tours suit many ages, abilities, situations, and schedules. Even a two-hour window will suffice for an off-road ride. Visitors with more time to spare can add on the option of a home cooked steak dinner to their evening ATV experience!

Glenwood’s ATV tours generally climb from a base elevation of 6,200 feet to 9,000 feet and take riders through a variety of topography. These remote locations prove excellent opportunities for wildlife viewing. Look for elk, mule deer, turkeys, grouse, fox, eagles and the occasional black bear catching a nap.

No experience required. Guides provide all the instruction and gear necessary for an outstanding backcountry experience. Remember ATVs are made for rugged terrain. Their wide tires, low center of gravity and low gears enable them to safely and steadily crawl up hillsides, over boulders, and through creeks. For long flat stretches go ahead, let the throttle out and enjoy the ride!

Unimogs are customized four-wheel drive trucks manufactured by Mercedes-Benz. The name Unimog is a German acronym for UNIversal-MOtor-Gerät; Gerät being the German word for machine or device. Due to their powerful off-road capabilities, Unimogs are used in rugged terrain throughout the world including jungles, mountains, and deserts as military vehicles. In Glenwood Springs, Unimogs easily negotiate the ruts, bumps, rocks and rough roads of the Roaring Fork Valley and beyond on off road tours.

Tours take visitors through pristine alpine country, on mostly private access roads which increases opportunities for encounters with wildlife. Guides are expert outdoorsmen and women and can provide guests with detailed information about natural history, folklore, plant life and critters large and small. Panoramic views of Mt. Sopris, the Maroon Bells, the Flat Tops and the Eagle and Roaring Fork Valleys are the highlights of the trip.
