Snowmobile enthusiasts of all types will enjoy this professionally guided tour. It departs from our Heeney Outpost near Silverthorne, Colorado OR from our Birdseye Outpost south of Copper Mountain. We have pickup locations for your party in both Breckenridge and Keystone for your convenience, or we can pick you up from many of the resorts in Summit County. See below to compare both snowmobile tours.

While it’s best suited for those lacking experience with snowmobiling or families with children, anyone can enjoy the breathtaking views and good times tooling around on the trails or playing on our oval track in the meadow. We also offer a 1,000 foot tubing hill as an option at our Heeney Outpost where everyone can let out their inner child! (See our Scenic + Tubing Tour!)

Depending on weather and the tour you pick, some of the sights include: Rocky Mountain National Park, the Continental Divide, and several of the tallest peaks in the Rocky Mountains. Bring a camera and let your guide know if you’re the type who is into taking advantage of all the photo opportunities. They will be happy to show you all the best places to take photos that your friends will envy! Along the way, we’ll stop off at our “cocoa” cabin to warm up with complimentary hot beverages while you’re surrounded by Eagle’s Nest Wilderness.

Heeney Outpost   

The Scenic Snowmobile Tour at Heeney is a slow paced tour that goes up the mountain, rewarding you with expansive views that you only get with an elevated overlook. On a clear day, you can see over 40 miles and look over the top of the Continental Divide at Rocky Mountain National Park and north to Rabbit Ears Pass. If it’s really clear, you can see mountains over 70 miles away. First you will receive instruction on how to operate the snowmobile at the beginning of the tour. Next you will head out onto the the trail that gently takes you up the mountain.

During your tour your guide will stop you at great places to take pictures and at the Cocoa Cabin so you can warm up sipping hot chocolate while overlooking the Eagles Nest Wilderness. Also let your guide know if you want to open up the throttle on the 3/4 mile long track. You can also let your kids ride the kiddie snowmobiles at this stop.

Birdseye Outpost

The Scenic Snowmobile Tour at Birdseye could be the best choice for you if you want a slow paced tour that stays down in the valley.  It starts with instruction on how to operate the snowmobile and takes you directly to a practice track where you can learn how your snowmobile handles.  After the practice track, you head down the trail that goes through the forest and parallels the headwaters of the Arkansas river.

On a clear day, you can see the three tallest mountains in the Rockies! Make sure you ask your guide to stop at the Cocoa Hut to enjoy some free hot chocolate and let the kids ride the kiddie snowmobiles.  You can also request to your guide that you would like to stay on the flattest trails we have so that your guide will know to guide you on trails with very little up and down. Please know that you control the speed of your snowmobile, if you have any concerns you may stop your snowmobile and your guide will happily come to help you.

This popular tour splits your time between snowmobiling and snow tubing.

Snowmobile and snow tubing enthusiasts of all types will enjoy this professionally guided tour. It departs from our Heeney Outpost near Silverthorne, Colorado. For your convenience, we have pickup locations in both Breckenridge and Keystone, or we can pick your party up from many of the resorts in Summit County. Call us to schedule transportation.

This tour is best suited for those who want to go a little faster than the folks on the Scenic Tour! Split your time between riding the trails and sliding down our 1,000 foot tubing hill. Be prepared to let your inner child run wild! This isn’t your ordinary “wait in line and then ride a tow rope up a short hill” kind of tubing.

This is snow tubing HCT style and it’s nothing like the experience at your typical ski resort!

You’ll stop along the trail at our tubing hill and park your snowmobile and get in a snow tube. Your guide will tow you in your snow tube up to the top of the tubing hill, which is pretty fun all by itself. Then you’ll start sliding down the hill in either the faster or slower areas, depending on the type of ride you want.

Join up with your friends, or go solo…it’s up to you. Kids need to be able to ride down in a snow tube by themselves in order to participate.
