At Yosemite Guide Service, we believe a backpack trip into the Sierra Nevada wilderness should be experiences where you gain appreciation and connection with the pristine natural landscape, and in a most personal and intimate manner.

Our backpack trips are truly adventures, both safe and challenging, visiting unique places where you will be inspired, amazed, and refreshed and re-energized. Founded on the basis of providing exclusive and rewarding backpacking and hiking adventures, our adventures are customized for specifically for you, a very distinctive service among other guide services and outfitters.

Our objective is to take you to incredible places, special locations we have research in over 30+ years exploring the Sierra Nevada. Our locations are exceptional and readily accessible, yet not overcrowded with other backpackers. Most of our trips are “made to order” and are exclusive for you, your family, or friends. Just give us the dates you prefer and we’ll work with you to plan a special trip for you. We have a large selection of outstanding locations for any time of the year, with not having pre-established dates for many of our trips, we can use our extensive knowledge to provide you with the absolute best adventure you can get!

Includes: expert guides, transportation, all camping equipment (stoves, cookware, water filters, group first aid kit, permits, maps, emergency transceivers, etc.), and the finest quality backpacking gear (backpacks, sleeping bags, ground pads, backpack chairs, hiking poles, and tents).
