Maine’s coastal waters and inland hills provide a perfect setting for campers to discover their connections with the earth and practice outdoor group living skills. Discovery Trips take place entirely outdoors and are for campers who want a more physically and mentally challenging experience. Rain or shine, we are on the trail, on the water and on the go!
