Good to Know

Before You Ride

A few things to keep in mind when planning your shuttle.

Book Ahead

Same-day shuttles are sometimes available, but we recommend booking at least a day in advance to guarantee your ride — especially during peak season.

Group Discounts

Traveling with a trail family? Group rates are available. The more hikers, the better the deal. Give us a call with your group size for pricing.

Gear Friendly

Full packs, trekking poles, bear canisters — bring it all. Our vehicles are set up for hikers, not commuters. We've got room for your gear.

Weather Cancellations

Mountain roads can get dicey. If conditions are unsafe, we'll work with you to reschedule. Safety first — always.

Trail Intel

Know Before You Go

We're not just shuttle drivers — we're trail advisors. With thousands of AT miles between us, we can help you plan your route, suggest campsites, and point out the spots the guidebook doesn't mention.
