What To Expect

Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone

Your expert guide will meet you at the Pavilion next to the Upper Falls Parking Area at 8AM. This is also the staring point for Uncle Tom's Trail. The hike is a 6-mile loop. The hike is along the Canyon Rim, through the forest out to Ribbon Lake, and then past a geyser basin, Clear Lake, and the Wapiti Meadows with big views of the Hayden Valley. If you hike one trail in Yellowstone this is it!

The four of us had an excellent couple of hikes with Josh along the Lamar valley and a canyon walk behind Gardiner down to The Yellowstone river. Josh was the perfect guide, easy to get along with, well informed, courteous, organised, punctual and his easy manner made our hikes a real highlight. We saw a wide variety of wildlife as well as enjoying the amazing scenery. Thanks. Tony, Tara, Jim & Maria.

We booked 3 days of hiking with Yellowstone Hiking Guides and received an email 4 days before the first hike stating that all hikes were canceled due to weather conditions. As stated by a previous reviewer I also checked upcoming weather and did not notice anything out of the ordinary for this time of year. Luckily, we were able to book with another company at the last minute and had almost perfect weather (for late Sept.) all three days. It was a very stressful few days while I looked for another company as I had not prepared for unguided hikes and wanted our Yellowstone experience to be safe and memorable (good memories!).

We reserve the right to cancel a trip or trips in the event of severe weather. We are sorry you were inconvenienced. We did contact you in advance and issued a full refund.

The trip was cancelled two days before it was scheduled to start due to "inclement"weather. The forecast was for 34 degree lows and 50 degree highs and partly sunny skies for the day of the hike. I have a hard time believing anyone would consider that inclement weather in Montana. I ended up having to book another guide for three times the cost due to the last minute booking.

We reserve the right to cancel trips due to severe weather, though it is rare that we have to do so. Sorry you were inconvenienced. We did give you advance notice and a full refund.
