The American Alps

Enjoy more than just mountains, meadows and waterfalls – there is as much or more diversity of scenery and terrain on this tour than any of our other 6-day tours. Try on some cowboy boots while you kick around the “Old West” town of Winthrop, then change into lederhosen for a walk through the Bavarian-themed town of Leavenworth. Pedal on road bikes, fat-bikes and gravel (trail) bikes from rainforests to rugged peaks. Descend through Ponderosa pine forests to the sagebrush desert on the east side of the Cascades. Finish the week with a ride straight through the mountains (literally!). Our route back to Seattle concludes on a trail that takes you beneath the mountains on an old railroad tunnel over 2 miles long. Celebrate an amazing week with lunch at the iconic Snoqualmie Falls Overlook.
