Adventures in Amazing Places
We offer sea to mountain adventures in Washington State, hiking and canyon exploring in Zion National Park and the and Rock Climbing Adventures in Kentucky's Red River Gorge.
The goal is to get students back to nature. Therefore, our trips are camping trips! This keeps the price down significantly compared to staying in hotels and gives the students a true outdoor experience. Teachers who have at least 10 students on a trip travel for FREE! Don't want to camp? Other lodging options are available at an increased cost.
