Adventure Iowa

Experience professionally guided outdoor adventures in the wild, beautiful places of Iowa! We're here to have fun, meet new people & enjoy nature--to take a break from technology and the stresses of contemporary life--to have the kind of experiences you only thought possible in other states!

We go off-the-beaten path, hiking & backpacking in places that will have you thinking, "I can't believe this is Iowa!", and embark on rappelling and rock climbing trips that defy the old adage that 'Iowa is flat'. We canoe, kayak, river tube and do river trips, camping on sandbars with nightly campfires. We also camp at established campgrounds and do day and weekend trips from there.

I have explored the state and have led hundreds of trips the past 8 years, and together we have found the very best Iowa has to offer. Many of the places are not in any guidebooks, and even when they are, we know all the hidden places they miss.

One of our past attendee's said that the great thing about these adventures is not just the amazing scenery, but the people that are part of them.

Hope to see you on an adventure soon!
