Wildwood Camp: Teen Adventure Trip - Vermont's Long Trail

Gear up for a week of adventure along the ridge of Vermont's Green Mountains on this inspiring trek. The Long Trail is the oldest long-distance hiking trail in the country and traverses some of Vermont's highest peaks, offering breathtaking vistas along the way. Guided by experienced trek leaders, teens will have the opportunity to learn and practice Leave No Trace camping skills and fortify their confidence to thrive in the backcountry. Join us for five great days exploring the natural wonders of Vermont's famous footpath through the wilderness and make friendships that will last a lifetime.

This itinerary includes hiking over 35 miles of backcountry terrain with an internal-frame backpack weighing up to 55 pounds while travelling up to 10 miles per day. It is important to have proper hiking boots that have already been broken in.

Teen Adventure Trips focus on developing a love of the outdoors. Trips begin with a half-day of team-building and orientation at Wildwood Camp. Groups are small and co-ed, with two leaders and between 5-8 teens. Participants practice hands-on skills in conservation and outdoor living and develop knowledge of the region's natural history.
