Colorado Day Hikes with Sierra Club Dallas

Jul 31, 2025 08:40AM ● By Bernice Butler

The Sierra Club Dallas Group will host its annual Colorado Mountain Day Hikes from August 9 to 16, offering North Texans an unforgettable week of guided hiking through the breathtaking wilderness surrounding Leadville and Buena Vista, Colorado.

Participants will tent camp together in a group site near Leadville and explore new high-country trails daily. Hikes are moderate in difficulty and take place between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m., allowing time for acclimation, recovery and relaxation in camp. Each day’s hike offers a different experience—from alpine lakes and pine forests to sweeping summit views—led by seasoned Sierra Club volunteers dedicated to low-impact, environmentally conscious recreation.

The outing fosters camaraderie, wellness and immersion in the natural world. Hikers must bring their own gear, food and transportation, but group cooking, evening campfires and shared trail experiences create a strong sense of community. Past participants often return year after year for the restorative power of movement, mountain air and mindful time outdoors.

This is an ideal opportunity for individuals looking to unplug, connect with nature and explore one of the most scenic regions of the Rocky Mountains with an experienced and supportive group. Participants should be in good shape and able to hike at high altitudes with a daypack.
