Reconnecting people with the outdoors (and each other). That’s the main goal of a Guineafowl Adventure Company guided hike. When founder Dave Fatula realized that often a lack of knowledge, resources, and transportation were barriers between people saying they want to go hiking and actually hiking, he decided to create a solution.
A guided hike with Guineafowl Adventure Company is more than a walk in the woods. It’s an experience that begins as soon as you “Book a Hike.” Would-be adventurers become part of the Guineafowl confusion (the actual term for a group of guineas!), and as such, are thoughtfully shepherded through their journey from Boston to the White Mountains and back.
Teamwork is part of our identity. Our flock mentality (see what we did there) is modeled after Guineafowl. These animals are fiercely loyal and highly protective of their own. At Guineafowl Adventure Company, we strive to embody these philosophies; we know we are stronger, safer, and more adventurous as a pack.
Hikers are encouraged to choose the right hike for their fitness and experience level and we’re always available to chat about your options and which hikes may best suit you and your goals. Personal attention is a part of the booking process - we speak to every client before heading up on your adventure to answer any questions and get you ready for your hike. Picking the right hike difficulty will make your experience more enjoyable. Hikers are supported in their journey of self-exploration––testing their skills and pushing their comfort zone a bit wider.

Guineafowl hikes are a safe and inclusive space. We believe the outdoors is for everybody and every body. Nature doesn’t discriminate, and neither do we. We welcome people of all walks of life, birthplaces, colors, ages, and lifestyles to explore the mountains with us. In our eyes, the only wrong choice is staying home when the mountains call you to them.
