Beaver Trip is a classic challenge of the Adirondacks and merely the first leg of a 740-mile trip that carries on to Maine, the 90-miler has been paddled for centuries.

Starting Monday only 30 miles from camp, this continuous route from Old Forge, takes the Moose River through the Fulton Chain Lakes, to Raquette Lake and the Raquette River to Forked Lake, Long Lake and finally via the Stony Creek Ponds to Upper, Middle, and Lower Saranac lake and ends at Lake Flower. Finally, campers return to camp on Friday to join the rest of camp for banquet dinner and the dance!

Mini trips

We now have 3-day, 2-night "mini trips" during two regular camp sessions!

These trips offer a perfect balance of traditional Unirondack magic and Trip Camp adventure. Campers will spend several days on-site enjoying classic camp activities with the whole community, then go on a 2-night camping trip adventure in the middle of the week with a smaller group. They will then return for another full day of fun back at camp before the session concludes.

Mini-trips are a great option for campers who are too young to sign up for full-week Trip Camps, or those who would like a more low-stakes introduction to wilderness trips. To sign up, simply register for the corresponding Unirondack camp session (Channing I or Parker I), and then wait for an email with a link to sign up for the mini-trip 2 weeks before the session starts.

Bear Trip (ages 12-14) - A mini-backpacking trip that happens during Channing I (July 6-12)

Otter Trip (ages 14-16) - A mini-canoeing trip that happens during Parker I (July 20 - 26)
