Adventures
It's Time to Start Your Adventures
Outdoor recreation has psychological benefits, including the prevention or reduction of stress; improved self-esteem, confidence and creativity; spiritual growth; and an increased sense of exhilaration, adventure and challenge from life. Good for the body.
Backpacking Trips
Backpacking is a form of low-cost, independent travel, which often includes staying in inexpensive lodgings and carrying all necessary possessions in a backpack. Once seen as a marginal form of travel undertaken only through necessity, it has become a mainstream form of tourism.
Family Hiking Trips
Our recommended family trips are great opportunities for families with school age children to travel as a family, enjoy amazing hiking destinations, and to feel confident that what you’re embarking on is appropriate for your family. The main criteria we use to determine a good family trip are the difficulty of the hiking (easy to moderate), the weight of the backpacks (10-20 pounds), and flexibility with itineraries. Active, strong children 12 and older can certainly enjoy additional trips, so these are merely suggestions. Finally, appropriateness of a trip is subjective and should be determined on a case by case basis by evaluating the nature and demands of the trip, and the fitness and experience of your family.
Water Sports
Diving, the sport of jumping off springboards or platforms into water. Fin swimming is a sport similar to traditional swimming using fins, monofin, snorkel and other specific devices. Modern pentathlon includes swimming, a show jumping course on horseback, and cross country running.
Winter Sports
Winter sports or winter activities are competitive sports or non-competitive recreational activities which are played on snow or ice.
Why Outdoor Adventure
An adventure experience helps young people to learn to manage themselves in a risky and uncertain environment and to achieve that balance. Such an experience can be a real boost to self-esteem, especially for those who have not previously excelled.
What You Get
Outdoor adventure keeps kids active and can boost their physical stamina and fitness. Playing outdoor games can also strengthen their muscles and bones, build immunity, and lower the risk of many diseases like diabetes, heart problems, and obesity.
