Adventure Camps - Expeditions


Coastal Maine

Program Description

Ages: 12 - 14       Duration:  14 Days (Sun-Sat)       Price:  $2,850

Our adventure will start with group challenges, teamwork, and personal growth as we conquer a high-ropes course at The University of New Hampshire. We then head to a rock-climbing crag riddled with glacially deposited boulders and the remnants of an ancient volcano. It is here that we work to improve our rock climbing techniques and enjoy the parks of New Hampshire. For the next couple of days we'll experience the beauty (Sunrises, Sunsets, Bald Eagles, Seals) and adventure of sailing through the coastal islands of Maine. Sea captains will teach us how to read wind, maps, tide charts, and how to navigate through the beautiful islands of the Penobscot Bay. As we become more familiar with the ocean we will set out on our final water day to kayak and explore more of this expansive area of Maine. Back on shore, we will head up to Acadia National Park where you will be outfitted with a mountain bike to pedal one of the coolest carriage road systems in the country. With over 200 miles of trails and carriage roads, Acadia is the place for us to explore by bike and foot. Then roll up our sleeves - it is time to volunteer! Become part of the community of people that helps maintain the beautiful Acadia National Park. The trip culminates with a summit hike up Cadillac Mountain, which hosts one of the best (and earliest) views of the sunrise on the east coast. We then finish our afternoon at the beautiful Sand Beach to swim in the refreshing Atlantic Ocean. If a classic New England adventure is what you are looking for, then look no further than Coastal Maine!
