These 7 to 14 day wilderness trips in a group of 6 to 12 participants are the ultimate in experiential learning at Discovery Ministries. The majority of our challenge trip participants say it is the hardest thing they have ever done.

We provide everything you need except your clothes. We usually do some group initiatives and low and high ropes course work in camp to prepare the group to work together. Then, we teach them the skills they need to take a trip in the wilderness together.

After these preparations, the group and two D.M. facilitators drop on the river or in the woods to begin an intense learning experience. The facilitators give the group destinations, then follow wherever the group leads. What the group cooks and eats, the facilitators eat. We try to incorporate some of the other exciting activities D.M. has to offer, but whether or not we get to do them depends on how well the group works together to reach destinations and the weather.
