DOG HIKING & DOG WALKING · DENVER FOOTHILLS
CITY EDGE.
MOUNTAIN DOG.
Small-pack dog hiking and structured dog walking for dogs living where Denver meets the foothills. Pickup and drop-off, GPS route tracking, trail photos, and actual mountain time built into the week.
WHERE THE METRO ENDS, WE START
YOUR DOG CAN SEE
THE MOUNTAINS TOO.
Hi Country Hounds provides dog hiking and dog walking throughout the Denver foothills for active dogs living west of the metro and in nearby mountain communities. Our signature service is simple: we pick your dog up, head for the trail, hike with a small group of compatible dogs, and bring them home happy, tired, and considerably less interested in supervising your evening.
This part of the Front Range is the transition zone between neighborhoods and mountain terrain. Morrison, Indian Hills, Kittredge, Genesee, Evergreen, and nearby foothill communities have quick access to exactly the kind of outdoor environment our service is built around. Groups stay small, introductions are thoughtful, and the day is shaped around the dogs.

THE FRONT RANGE ADVANTAGE
LEAVE THE GRID.
FIND THE DIRT.
The Denver foothills give us options. Depending on the day, weather, traffic, trail conditions, and the dogs in the pack, adventures may use routes around Morrison, Indian Hills, Kittredge, Genesee, Evergreen, and other nearby foothill areas.
Lower foothill access, rocky terrain, pine forest, and quick transitions from neighborhoods into real trail country.
Mountain neighborhoods, forest, elevation, and access to the I-70 foothill corridor give us plenty of options for the right pack.
Evergreen, Conifer, Idaho Springs, and the I-70 / 285 mountain corridors give us room to change plans when weather, snow, mud, or trail traffic says otherwise.
BUILT FOR COLORADO DOGS
SUN. SNOW. MUD.
WHATEVER.
We hike year-round and adjust routes, pace, and expectations to the mountain conditions in front of us.
BETTER CONTROL.
BETTER MATCHES.
Small groups give dogs room to settle into the crew and give us better control around other trail users, dogs, wildlife, bikes, and horses.
WE ACTUALLY
GET TO KNOW THEM.
New dogs start with an introduction and first adventure before moving into compatible groups. Some join quickly. Some need more time. Both are fine.
THE ROUTE
ISN’T SACRED.
Snow, heat, mud, wind, closures, and trail traffic can change the plan. We choose the outing that makes sense that day.
WE HANDLE
THE WHOLE THING.
Pickup, transport, water, trail time, photos, route tracking, and getting your dog back home are part of the adventure.
WHO THIS WORKS WELL FOR
DOGS WITH
SOME BUSINESS TO HANDLE.
Shy, nervous, selective, or slower to warm up? We evaluate dogs individually. Group hiking is built around compatibility, not forcing every dog into the same setup.
