CO-ED

Backcountry Camping

Mountain or Coastal Adventure

Outdoor Adventure Camp

Memories to Last A Lifetime

 

Our 6-Day Backpacking Adventure For Teens in Olympic National Park is designed for ages 13 to 17, whether new or experienced backpackers. Challenges complimented by fun and support from others lead to a positive and often life-changing adventure for all! (Note: when possible, youth will be grouped with like ages, younger and older groups, pending actual registrations). Guided by world-class outdoor educators with a focus on leadership and outdoor skill-building, teens will have the chance to explore and experience either:

  • The remote Pacific Northwest coastline, camping on the beach and weaving in and out of some old-growth rainforests as the tides roll in and out.
  • The high-elevation mountain zones within the park, camping, and hiking beside alpine lakes, rivers, waterfalls, and meadows. Trails may take them to lush meadows, rocky alpine terrain, and maybe even the odd glacier.

“From a parent's perspective, Lasting Adventures provided plenty of communication before and during the trip, so I knew he was in good hands. From a kids perspective, this adventure taught him skills he may not have otherwise learned, built up his self-confidence and independence, and fostered a love for the outdoors. He already can’t wait to do this camp again!”

“The guides were so knowledgeable of the area, cooked amazing meals, taught the kids about nature, kept them safe, and most importantly helped each kid prove to themselves they could do it! That built more confidence in my daughter and made her more reliant on herself and trusting of herself.”

“My friends and I (aged 13-15) went on a two-week backpacking trip with Lasting Adventures. Our group grew close as a family, and on the last night, we had a very joyous celebration. We joked, messed around, and ate delicious food prepared by the guides. I strongly recommend them if you are looking for a physical and active summer camp, with amazing views along the way.”

“My daughter participated in the 7-Day summer camp in Yosemite and, WOW, is all I can say! I was nervous, but the staff was quick to respond via email to all my questions. She had the time of her life and she can’t wait to do it again next summer!”

“My 15 (Nearly 16) year old son just got home from an EPIC trip with Lasting Adventures on the Outdoor Leadership Expedition. He had such a wonderful time and communicated that his guides were "the best." If you're looking for a journey for your young family members this comes genuinely, very highly recommended. All of the kids were thrilled, and all of the most free and relaxed of smiles!”
