The 2-Hour Camp Hale Tour is one of the most family-friendly snowmobile outings available in Vail, Colorado. Departing from a private lodge at historic Camp Hale, this guided ride offers two hours of winding forest trails and broad alpine meadows, climbing to elevations over 10,500 feet with stunning views of numerous surrounding mountain ranges.
This tour is especially popular with families, as children as young as two years old can participate as passengers. Double riding is encouraged, making it a great choice for parents who want to share the adventure with younger riders. All tours include modern Ski-Doo snowmobiles, helmets, and a professional guide to ensure both safety and enjoyment throughout the ride.

What makes the Camp Hale Tour uniquely accessible is its combination of gentle terrain and breathtaking scenery.
