The Trip Leading activities at camps vary hugely depending on the type of camp you work on. Some camps will have short trips, which involve taking the kids hiking, canoeing or biking for one or two days and nights away from camp, while other camps will involve trips up to a week or longer out in the wilderness, camping out each night with just yourself and another counselor to take charge!

While most camps will have trips that feature around hiking, canoeing, mountain biking and developing outdoor living skills, be sure that whichever way you travel you're going to see some amazing sites as you lead an expedition into the wilds of America! Whatever type of camp you work on be sure that as a trip leading instructor you'll have some unforgettable adventures!
