Kids Backpacking Weekend
This trip is designed to help your child develop a lasting love for the outdoors! It will be filled with fun and adventure as well as many opportunities to learn. We will be teaching outdoor safety skills and backpacking basics. We’ll have fun with the map and compass and learn respect for the environment. Our 15 years experience backpacking with children will ensure your kids comfort and safety.
We will spend our first night at “Kids in the Woods” base camp becoming familiar with the equipment and comfortable sleeping in the outdoors. We’ll have some fun around the campfire while enjoying s’mores.
The following morning we will arise early, eat a healthy breakfast and head for the trailhead. Most of our day will be spent hiking to our wilderness destination exploring and learning along the way.

The last day we will have breakfast together and continue exploring. We will then break camp and begin our trek home. All the kids backpacking equipment, snacks, and meals will be provided. We’ll keep them well fed! Your trip packet will have a list of everything you will need to bring.
