Group Backpacking
There’s something special about spending a few days in the mountains, carrying only what you need and settling into a world without distractions. These backpacking trips are designed to help you feel confident and comfortable in the backcountry, whether it’s your first overnight or you’re looking to go a little deeper and venture a little further.
Group backpacking trips are pre-planned by your guide but designed based on experience levels and goals of all group members.
Please note that Group Backpacking trips require a minimum of 4 participants to run. You will be required to enter your credit card details at the time of booking but you will not be charged until the minimum group numbers have been met!

What Hike Revy Handles
Route Planning & Logistics
We will take care of the route planning and logistics so you can focus on enjoying the experience. From choosing the route to bringing the group gear, we'll make sure to cover all the bases to make the trip flow smoothly from start to finish. Depending on your comfort level, we have options to go to established backcountry campsites, or we can be fully out in the wilderness
Meal Planning & Cooking
We will plan simple, satisfying backcountry meals and prepare them for us at camp. We'll discuss dietary preferences to make sure the meals are right for your group. All you need to come prepared with is your own lunches and snacks, and we'll handle breakfasts and dinners. There's nothing like coming out of your tent in the morning to a freshly brewed cup of backcountry coffee!
Safety & Communication
All Hike Revelstoke guides come equipped with a fully-stocked group first aid kit and backcountry communication devices so you can relax and enjoy the experience knowing that all the important safety details are covered. A detailed trip plan will be shared with you beforehand and you can share it with your loved ones so that everyone knows where we're headed and how long we'll be out adventuring.
What You'll Need to Bring
No previous backpacking experience is required, but you should feel comfortable carrying a heavier pack for a full day. We are always happy to answer questions ahead of time and offer guidance so you feel prepared and confident heading into the trip.
Guests are responsible for bringing their own personal backpacking and camping gear, including a 60L+ backpack, sturdy hiking boots, weather-appropriate clothing, sleeping pad, sleeping bag, and tent. A detailed packing list will be provided before the trip so you can make sure you’re fully prepared. If you’re missing a few pieces of gear, rentals may be possible - feel free to reach out and we can look at options. We want these experiences to be as accessible as possible!
We will provide shared group equipment such as backcountry cooking gear, group meals, a comprehensive first aid kit, emergency equipment, and backcountry communication devices.
