Adventures

These offerings are multi-day backpacking experiences designed to immerse guests fully in the rhythm of the natural world. Guided by the Baker Road team, each trip moves through carefully selected terrain that invites both physical challenge and mental clarity. Our routes are chosen not just for their beauty, but for their ability to create space for reflection, connection, and perspective.

Participants carry what they need and travel together at a steady, intentional pace. Days are shaped by the trail rather than a fixed schedule, allowing the experience to unfold naturally. Preparation details are shared in advance, but the full shape of the journey reveals itself over time, encouraging presence, adaptability, and trust in the process.

Pre-Retreat Retreat

from $0.00

Hi again friends. We’re really grateful to gather with you and ready ourselves for our respective June retreats. We’ll be gathering on Saturday 5/30 from 8:30a to 1:30p in the 43022 zip. Please register your participation below - contributions will be helpful to cover our costs to host, but not necessary.

During the week of our pre-retreat, we’ll send a few prep ideas and set just a few more expectations (but barely) - as Thoreau said, we all “need the tonic of wildness” and we definitely know that’s meaningful practice for our experience in June.

Our time will include some light movement, deep conversation, nurturing breakfast, lunch, and more. Every activity is an offer for a bit more intention and readiness for what’s ahead. Please connect with us at service@bakerroad.com if you’ve got questions.

Men's 75 Fall Cohort (2026)

$1,600.00

Hike your own hike, pick your own price. As with all Baker Road programming, we’re extending this invitation with only an offered price - this is based on past hiker feedback, comparative experiences, and the cost on our end. What matters most, however, is what feels most aligned for you. You’re welcome to pay the offered price or rightsize the investment using discounts from 10-50% off. Discount codes can be entered at checkout in increments of 10% off beginning with VULTURE10, VULTURE20… VULTURE50.

Someday this site will accommodate this a little smoother, but for now we trust you’ll navigate. If cost remains prohibitive beyond these codes, or if you’d like to contribute additional resources for others, please get in touch with us at service@bakerroad.com. We’ll make further pricing accommodations on a first-come, first-served basis.

This is the final step to confirm your spot in what we hope will be a powerful adventure with a remarkable group of men. Buen camino!

"Being caught up in the movement of work and life can get so loud sometimes. So loud that it can become a drain and distraction from your "Why". The curated adventure with Joe was exactly what I needed. To be able to pause, embrace the world around me, and get back in touch with my adventurous inner child gave me life instead of draining it. Highly recommended for a reset as the inner work begins."

Yogi T.
"Because of the physical challenge, social/emotional walls came down quickly. As a result, the group was incredibly open to each other and transformation took place."

Justin N.
"Life changing. I gained a whole new perspective about community, my physical abilities, and what being around a group of men could be when everyone comes into it with intention. If someone wants to work on their own vulnerability, mindfulness, and introspection, this experience is a must.”

Carlin G.
