Amazing family adventure with Traci. The perfect mix of fun and learning. - We had an amazing experience hiking with Traci from Blue Ridge Hiking Company. From the moment we met her, she made our family feel completely at ease. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the trails, the local plants, and the history of the area. We learned so much along the way. Traci did a fantastic job engaging with our boys, keeping them curious and entertained throughout the hike. She balanced fun and safety perfectly, making sure we enjoyed every part of the experience while staying comfortable and confident on the trail. If you are looking for a guided hike that is educational, family-friendly, and truly memorable, we highly recommend Traci and Blue Ridge Hiking Company.

Waterfall, Waterfall, Waterfall, Mushroom - Bev was an amazing guide. We learned so much from her about local history, local vegetation, and even photography techniques. She was fun, energetic, and encouraging. We saw three waterfalls in a relatively short amount of time. I would highly recommend spending the morning exploring with Bev.

Blue Ridge, Amy, highly recommended. - This was a hike derailed by the weather disaster last year, and it was worth the wait. A year later, I got to hike with Amy in Black Mountain range, and she was a great guide, from the pick up at my hotel, throughout the hike and our return. She even gave me ideas for future hikes, which I intend to return soon for and make sure it is booked with Amy.

Blue Ridge Experience - Eli took myself and my son out for half of the day. She was very knowledgeable and professional and took into account each of our needs to provide us with a wonderful experience! The hikes were incredible and the views were amazing! We didn't have to worry about the transportation or the food as Eli took care of that too! She even provided us with our very own album so we could enjoy these lasting memories!

Memorable hike with Bev - Bev was an absolutely incredible guide. She led me and my boys on a memorable birthday hike to Mount Pisgah, and we even had time for a quick adventure up the Frying Pan Fire Tower. Her deep knowledge of the area’s rich history, along with her insights into the local flora and fauna, made the experience truly special. Bev’s patience, warmth, and genuine passion for teaching shone through every step of the way. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had her lead our hike and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for an unforgettable outdoor experience.

Fantastic Hiking Experience at Dupont Forest with Bev - I had a fantastic time hiking with Bev at Dupont Forest. Her extensive experience in the area was evident as she guided me to the best spots for stunning views of the waterfalls. She was meticulous in her preparation, prioritizing my safety and comfort throughout the hike. Bev thoughtfully provided food, water, and hiking poles, ensuring I had everything I needed. Beyond the hike itself, she offered insightful commentary about the areas we drove through, including downtown Asheville and the Biltmore Estate, adding even more depth to the experience. I would highly recommend hiking with her and look forward to returning for another adventure.
