Trip Overview

As one of our more ambitious adventures for 7th-9th graders, California Explorer offers two 5-day backpacking trips: one on the Pacific Coast, and the other in the High Sierra mountains! These sections give students the chance to truly experience outdoor backcountry living by carrying everything they need on their backs for several days, escaping the crowds, and finding serene beauty within our cherished public lands. In addition to backpacking, students will have the opportunity to whitewater raft, surf, and experience a few day hikes!
