High Adventure Experience - Bergen Peak Hike Day - 7/24/26

Join EPRD for our first ever, High Adventure Experiences! These activities are designed for anyone aged 10 and up to attend. Parents are welcome to register too! Take a day off of work this summer and spend some time with your kiddos outdoors at one of our amazing outdoor experiences! Or let EPRD take care of your young adventurer - and you can still take a day off! ************************************************************** Join us for a hike to the top of Bergen Peak! We’re heading to the Bergen Peak area to learn some mountain skills together. We’ll be rotating through hands-on stations where you'll learn to build emergency shelters and practice navigating. Along the way, we will be doing Leave No Trace activities to help keep our trails clean and learn how to better care for the land. We’ll also spend some time learning about the local wildlife that call this area home, and we’ll see who can spot the most plants and animals with a round of flora and fauna bingo! After we come back down from the peak, we will go to the pool at Buchanan for a dip to cool off! Come on out and join us!! ************************************************************** Notes for day of - - Drop off and pick up is at Buchanan Recreation Center. - Drop off is at 8:45 AM, pickup is at 4:00 PM. - We will be outside for the duration of the day, dress appropriately for the weather, and don't be afraid to bring a day pack with what you may need for the day.
