"The instructors were so much fun to be with. They made everything as safe and as fun as possible. I was as close to the instructors as I was to the students."

The Personal Attention you receive for the summer doesn't end with your trip!
Students often visit each other during the winter or host a weekend reunion with their group. Our alumni plan trips together in college and then return to Adventure Treks as instructors.
The friends you make here often remain your closest friends for life. As you sign up for your Adventure, keep in mind that everyone is nervous about the plane ride, meeting people, or trying a new activity.
You can always make excuses to stay at home, but this is an experience you won’t want to miss!

Virtually every Adventure Treks student says that their Adventure Treks experience was one of the most influential and defining experiences of their lives. We are always impressed but never surprised by the wonderful colleges and Universities our students attend.
College counselors consistently tell us that the confidence, maturity and leadership skills that students gain through their Adventure Treks experiences significantly helps their college application.
We hope you will view a summer with Adventure Treks as an investment in both your child’s education and future. Valuable life skills, such as becoming part of a close-knit community, working with a group to achieve collective goals, adapting to new environments, and finding the self-determination and confidence to face new challenges, are not found in textbooks. However, these skills will prove invaluable to your child when venturing to college and the world beyond.
Students will also develop outdoor skills and learn how to enjoy the wilderness for years to come. We teach and practice Leave No Trace ethics to preserve the wilderness for others.
