I came in looking to purchase a bike. They were very busy. Ren, one of the bike mechanics, saw me waiting and asked what he can do to help me. He was very knowledgable, understanding, and patient. I could tell that bikes are a labor of love for this guy. Ill be placing an order for a new Surly soon. Update: I came back in today and worked with the manager, Laura. The love and enjoyment of biking that the staff have is absolutely infectious — you can’t help but feel inspired talking with them. Laura was extremely knowledgeable and helped me focus on exactly what I needed without ever making me feel pressured. I felt supported the whole way through and left feeling confident and excited about my purchase.
Look no further when trying a new outdoor adventure than with Peak Adventures! You are well taken care of by all of the trip staff/guides. It is a great way to get some sunshine or just an ego boost from being outdoors. Amazing way to meet some great well diverse people around Sac State. Been on hiking, whitewater rafting, Arches National Park a week long camping/road trip, and Yosemite National Park camping trip. All trips were incredible life changing experiences :))
Without a bad conscience, I can recommend trips with Peak Adventures to anyone interested in outdoor trips! I'm an international student from Germany who doesn't have a car. Therefore, I was looking for cheap and good opportunities to see places in California, go for hikes and meet new people. Peak Adventures accelerated my expectations by far. I love how literally every staff member is super lovely and fun. They take "leave no trace behind" seriously and educate participants to a certain level. Also, the group size is always lovely (max. 20 participants). They encourage everybody to get to know the group. So far, I have gone on a day hike to lake Tahoe, Point Reyes and Apple Hill; Also, I've been on a weekend camping trip to lake Tahoe and Yosemite National Park (see some pictures of that below). All the camping gear, as well as food, is provided. The price might seem high for some people, but trust me, it would be much more if you'd rent a car and the gear (I checked with my friends). You'll definitely find me on more trips! Thanks, Peak Adventures!!
This is the place to rent snowshoes! You get four days for the same price that other places charge for one day. They also rent out MSR Denali Evo which are some of the lightest snowshoes on the market. Keep in mind, they don't have heel lifts, so they're not intended for ascending. The shop is located on Sac State's campus, but parking was easy with the multiple 30 minute spots within short walking distance. The staff were friendly and accommodating. Overall, great experience! By the way, the snowshoes worked great! I couldn't have summited Roundtop without them!
My friends and I went to Yosemite National Park this past weekend and we rented our camping equipment from Peak Adventures. The staff are super friendly and it was super affordable. They also give great advice for those who are very new to camping!
