Our current Hiker inventory gives you three very different ways to get into a Hiker Trailer: a Highway Deluxe, a Mid Range XL, and an Extreme Off Road.

• Highway Deluxe: Best suited for paved roads, established campgrounds, gravel, and smoother dirt roads.
• Mid Range XL: A step up in ground clearance and capability for customers who want to explore beyond the pavement.
• Extreme Off Road: Built around a more rugged suspension and off-road-focused equipment for tougher terrain.

If you're not sure which one fits your vehicle or camping style, we're happy to compare them with you in person at our Fort Collins showroom.

Absolutely. Mountain Time Campers welcomes customers to visit our Fort Collins showroom and see the Hiker Trailers in person.

Seeing the trailers side by side is one of the best ways to understand the differences between the models, especially when comparing road-focused and off-road configurations.

Our current inventory includes a Highway Deluxe, Mid Range XL, and Extreme Off Road, so you can see the different sizes, clearances, and equipment packages in person.

If you are interested in a specific trailer, we recommend contacting us before your visit so we can confirm it is still available and ready to view.

Yes. Mountain Time Campers is a Hiker Trailer dealer and offers both ready-built inventory and custom Hiker builds.

Yes. Our current inventory gives you the option to purchase a trailer that is already built rather than waiting for a new custom build.

If you are interested in a specific trailer, contact us for current availability and details on the build.

Hiker Trailer offers several models, including the Highway Lite, Highway Deluxe, Mid Range, Mid Range XL, and Extreme Off Road.

Each model is designed around a different combination of size, towing characteristics, ground clearance, suspension, and intended terrain.

Mountain Time Campers may have select Hiker models available in stock, and we can also help customers explore custom build options based on their vehicle and camping needs.

The biggest difference is how each trailer is designed to be used.

• Highway Deluxe: A lightweight, road-oriented trailer for paved roads, campgrounds, gravel, and smoother dirt roads.
• Mid Range XL: A more capable option with additional ground clearance for customers who want light to moderate off-road capability.
• Extreme Off Road: Built for customers who plan to take their trailer farther off the beaten path and want a more rugged suspension and off-road-focused equipment package.

The Highway Deluxe is a great fit for customers who spend most of their time on pavement, established campgrounds, gravel roads, and smoother dirt roads.

The Mid Range XL is a good fit for customers who want more capability than the Highway models while still keeping a versatile trailer platform.

It provides additional ground clearance and a more capable suspension setup than the Highway Deluxe, making it a good option for gravel roads, rougher dirt roads, and lighter off-road travel.

The Extreme Off Road is Hiker's dedicated off-road platform. It is designed for customers who plan to travel on more demanding terrain and want equipment specifically suited to off-road use.

Hiker offers different trailer lengths depending on the model. Common configurations include 5×8, 5×9, and 5×10 platforms.

The right size depends on how much interior and storage space you need, what vehicle you will use for towing, and how you plan to camp.

Weight varies depending on the model, size, and equipment included in the build.

Hiker publishes model-specific specifications, but additional options and gear can change the final weight of a particular trailer.

GVWR stands for Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. It is the maximum allowable total weight of the trailer when loaded.

That includes the trailer itself, equipment, cargo, and anything else being carried by the trailer.

Hiker's standard specifications use a 2-inch ball hitch. Hitch configurations can vary depending on the specific build.

Yes. Hiker's published specifications list a 7-pin vehicle connection for its current trailer models.

It depends on the specific vehicle and trailer configuration.

Your vehicle's tow rating, payload capacity, hitch rating, and the loaded weight of the trailer should all be considered before towing.

If you are unsure which Hiker configuration makes sense for your vehicle, contact us and we can help you compare the trailer specifications.

Trailer braking equipment can depend on the trailer configuration, tow vehicle, and applicable requirements.

We can help identify the equipment on a particular Hiker, while your vehicle manufacturer's specifications and applicable local laws should be used to determine your towing requirements.

Ground clearance varies by model.

• Highway Deluxe: approximately 11 inches
• Mid Range: approximately 16.5 inches
• Mid Range XL: approximately 18 inches
• Extreme Off Road: approximately 14 inches

Actual clearance can vary depending on the configuration and equipment.

Standard equipment varies somewhat by model, but Hiker trailers include features such as an aluminum exterior, passenger-side door, screened side windows, a manual roof vent, shore power, LED lighting, rear galley storage, 12V and USB connectivity, interior lighting, vinyl flooring, and trailer running gear.

Yes. Hiker trailers feature a rear galley area with storage and shelving. The exact configuration depends on the model and build.

Hiker trailers include 110V shore power along with 12V electrical provisions and USB connectivity. Specific electrical equipment can vary depending on the build.

Yes. Hiker offers a wide range of customization options, including electrical configurations. Solar equipment can be incorporated depending on the specific build.

If you are planning an off-grid setup, let us know what you want to power and we can help you determine which options to consider.

Additional climate-control equipment can be available depending on the Hiker model and build configuration.

Contact us about the specific trailer or custom build you are considering so we can confirm available options.

Yes. Storage is one of the areas where Hiker's different configurations can make a big difference.

The Extreme Off Road, for example, can be equipped with additional integrated storage and exterior cargo solutions designed around off-road travel.

Yes. Customization is one of the major advantages of the Hiker platform.

Depending on the model, customers can configure different equipment, storage, electrical systems, suspension, wheels and tires, and other camping features around the way they plan to use the trailer.

Available options can include exterior colors, suspension, wheels and tires, storage, electrical equipment, galley equipment, racks, hitches, ventilation, and other camping equipment.

Available options vary by model and production configuration.

A ready-built trailer is a great choice if you want to start camping sooner and find a configuration that already fits your needs.

A custom build makes more sense if you have specific equipment, storage, electrical, towing, or off-road requirements that you want built into the trailer from the beginning.

Start with how you actually plan to camp.

Someone spending most weekends at established campgrounds will have very different requirements from someone planning extended off-road trips or remote camping.

We can help you compare the available configurations and prioritize the equipment that makes sense for your style of camping.

The Highway Deluxe is Hiker's lightweight, road-oriented platform. It is designed for paved roads, campgrounds, gravel roads, and smoother dirt roads.

Published specifications include a 2,000-pound axle, 14-inch wheels, approximately 11 inches of ground clearance, a 2-inch ball, and a 7-pin connection.

The Mid Range is designed for customers who want more capability than the Highway models while maintaining a compact trailer platform.

Published specifications include a 3,500-pound torsion axle, 15-inch wheels, approximately 16.5 inches of ground clearance, and a 2,900-pound GVWR.

The Mid Range XL builds on the Mid Range platform with additional clearance and off-road capability.

Published specifications include a 3,500-pound torsion axle with a 2-inch frame lift, 16-inch wheels, approximately 18 inches of ground clearance, and a 2,900-pound GVWR.

The Extreme Off Road is Hiker's dedicated off-road platform. It is designed for customers who plan to travel on more demanding terrain and want a more rugged suspension and equipment package.

Published specifications include a 3,500-pound straight axle with leaf springs and shocks, 17-inch wheels, approximately 14 inches of ground clearance, and a 2,900-pound GVWR.

The Highway Lite is Hiker's smaller, lightweight road-oriented option. It uses a compact 4×8 platform and is designed for customers who prioritize a smaller trailer and easy towing.

Like any trailer, a Hiker should receive regular inspections of its tires, wheels, suspension, hitch components, lights, electrical connections, and other running gear.

The appropriate maintenance schedule depends on the equipment installed and how the trailer is used.

Before towing, inspect the hitch connection, safety equipment, electrical connection, tires, wheels, lights, doors, storage compartments, and the equipment you are carrying.

Hiker trailers are built for outdoor use, but proper storage practices can help protect the trailer and its equipment over time.

Long-term storage should include attention to weather exposure, tires, batteries, and electrical equipment.

Winter-storage requirements depend on the equipment installed on your particular trailer.

If your trailer has water systems or other cold-sensitive equipment, those systems should be addressed before freezing temperatures.

Mountain Time Campers is located in Fort Collins, Colorado, and offers Hiker Trailers as part of our trailer lineup.

Yes. One of the biggest advantages of buying locally is being able to compare different models in person and talk through how you actually plan to use the trailer.

We can help you compare the available models, equipment, and configurations before you make a decision.

When inventory allows, yes. Our current inventory gives customers the opportunity to compare a Highway Deluxe, Mid Range, and Extreme Off Road and see the differences between the platforms firsthand.

The best place to start is by telling us how you plan to camp, what vehicle you'll be towing with, and what kind of roads and terrain you expect to encounter.

From there, we can help narrow down the right Hiker model and determine whether a ready-built or custom trailer makes the most sense for you.
