Asheville Biltmore Park biltmore park town square camping class Nature REI Science workshop

Join us for a Hiking/Backing with Children class. This is the 100th Anniversary of our National Parks, let’s take the children out to see and enjoy them!

Course overview

A fun part of parenting is sharing the experiences you have most enjoyed in life with your kids. If you have a love for the outdoors it is only natural you would want to teach your children about its wonders. How to do this while recognizing their special needs is not hard, it just takes a little planning. Be patient and thoughtful, and soon you will find they are as excited as you are about spending a day outside. This program is designed to help facilitate your family fun outside.

Notes

We will cover the basics including: how to be warm, dry and comfortable camping, gear and equipment necessities, ideas for fun activities; and great local areas to give it a try.
