About FalconGuides®

FalconGuides® are North America’s most respected outdoor recreation guidebooks, with titles covering the entire spectrum of outdoor activities.

Thirty years and hundreds of books, tens of thousands of maps, and countless trips into the wilderness, down the river, and up the cliff face later, a FalconGuides continues to feel as much at home on a bookshelf as it does, dog-eared and beaten in a backpack.  As one of the most respected outdoor recreation guidebook publishers written by top outdoors experts and enthusiasts, each guide invites readers to experience the endless adventure and beauty of the great outdoors. FalconGuides provide detailed how-to and where-to information on exhilarating human-powered activities ranging from hiking and backpacking to rock climbing, paddling, mountain biking, road biking, backcountry skiing, and more. Falcon’s objective is to outfit your mind with the best possible information on where to go, how to get there, and what skills are needed to have a safe and memorable adventure in the outdoors.

A large part of Falcon's continued success as the world's leading publisher of outdoor recreation titles comes from its unwavering focus. Falcon’s books do more than lead readers from Point A to Point B, or show them how to tie a knot, identify birds and mammals, and cook up a backcountry feast. FalconGuides engage the spirit of the adventure lover and capture the very heart and soul of outdoor America.
