SCOOP Hiking & Biking (Mountain biking)
Great choice! We are pumped to offer a new combo trip you will spend the days hiking, biking, and playing in the Adirondacks. We have a professional guide taking you out on the trails at Garnet Hill Outdoor Center you will do an hour and a half of mountain biking (some with power assist) and and hour and half hike (no experience necessary all trips are meant to try something new) and you will all have lunch at the lodge on the lake and maybe even take a swim if you want. The next day you will do a lazy tubing day down the river through the Adirondacks. You will be staying at Skye Farm Camp in a cabin but, you will need a sleeping bag and a pillow. You will spend your evenings around the campfire making s'mores and friends with a surprise event one night. If you have any questions please contact preorientation@skidmore.edu .
