Broadmoor Outfitters

What Broadmoor Outfitters does

Broadmoor Outfitters is a privately held outdoor adventure services company operating from a base camp at 6 Lake Avenue on the property of The Broadmoor five-star resort in Colorado Springs, Colorado. With a core team of approximately 8 employees supported by certified seasonal guides, the company delivers a portfolio of more than 32 guided activities—anchored by the Broadmoor Soaring Adventure zip line course at Seven Falls canyon (heights up to 500 ft, lines up to 1,800 ft), white water rafting on the Arkansas River, falconry lessons, rock climbing, mountain biking, e-bike tours, stand-up paddleboarding, guided hiking, paintball, and tomahawk throwing. It also runs the Bee Bunch children’s day camp for ages 3–11 and the Broadmoor Hunt app-based scavenger hunt.

The business model is predominantly transaction-based, charging per-person fees on guided experiences with starting prices around $144 per person and full-day offerings (white water rafting, Cog Up/Bike Down Pikes Peak) priced materially higher. Additional revenue comes from e-bike and mountain bike rentals on a usage-based basis and from corporate, YPO, and Scout group packages. Distribution is concentrated in the Colorado Springs market and routed through four channels: direct phone and SMS booking, online reservation via broadmooroutfitters.com, walk-in at the base camp, and—most strategically—The Broadmoor resort concierge desk, which functions as an informal reseller into luxury and corporate clientele.

Marketing relies on a content-led approach via the “Colorado Outdoors” blog, Instagram accounts (broadmooroutfitters with 287 followers and broadmoorsoaring), email newsletter capture, and TripAdvisor’s Top Ten Worldwide Attractions ranking for the Soaring Adventure. The company has no disclosed funding, no parent organization, no public ticker, and no AI/ML or software platform layer; it is an experiential, labor-intensive operator whose competitive position is built on its Broadmoor affiliation, Seven Falls canyon access, and credentialed guide team rather than on proprietary technology.
