Wilderness Experiences at The Broadmoor

Wilderness Experiences at The Broadmoor is where the refinement of The Broadmoor Hotel meets the wild soul of the Colorado backcountry, a collection of mountain escapes that redefines luxury adventure.

From the roaring creeks of Emerald Valley to the sandstone canyons of Cloud Camp, each wilderness property feels like a world apart, remote, raw, and utterly serene. You wake to birdsong instead of alarms, hike through wildflower meadows before breakfast, and end your day beside a crackling fire under a canopy of stars. Yet even here, far from the main resort, the Broadmoor's signature elegance follows, fine linens, gourmet meals, and service so intuitive it feels like magic. Wilderness Experience isn't just an escape from civilization; it's an elevation of it, where nature and nurture converge in a harmony that few destinations on earth can achieve.

Wilderness Experiences at The Broadmoor encompasses three distinct sanctuaries, Cloud Camp, The Ranch at Emerald Valley, and Fly Fishing Camp, each designed to showcase a different facet of Colorado's natural grandeur.

Cloud Camp sits 9,200 feet above sea level atop Cheyenne Mountain, accessible by a winding 3,000-foot climb or a mule ride that recalls the resort's early frontier spirit. The Ranch at Emerald Valley is a secluded alpine hideaway surrounded by Pike National Forest, where log cabins and horseback trails merge with fine dining and lakeside relaxation. And for those drawn to the water, Fly Fishing Camp on the Tarryall River offers private access to some of the state's most pristine trout waters, paired with rustic charm and expert guides. These wilderness lodges uphold the Broadmoor's five-star standards while embracing the untamed landscape, think handcrafted furniture, roaring hearths, and culinary excellence under open skies. The result is a form of hospitality that feels both elemental and eternal, proof that luxury and wilderness don't have to exist apart.

For the ultimate Colorado itinerary, pair your stay at The Broadmoor Hotel with a few nights at one of Wilderness Experiences at The Broadmoor properties.

Begin your journey in the resort's lakeside comfort, spa treatments, gourmet dining, and leisurely walks around West Lake, before heading into the mountains to reconnect with nature on a grander scale. Each wilderness retreat offers guided activities like fly fishing, horseback riding, hiking, and cooking classes, with transportation arranged directly through the main resort. Cloud Camp is ideal for couples seeking seclusion and sunrise views that feel like a religious experience; Emerald Valley suits families and groups craving both adventure and comfort; Fly Fishing Camp is perfect for solitude and reflection. When you return to the main resort, you'll feel the contrast deeply, the hum of the city below, the whisper of pines still in your ears. Wilderness Experiences at The Broadmoor isn't just an extension of your stay, it's the soul of Colorado, distilled into pure, unforgettable moments.
