Let UREC Adventure lead your class, team or organization on its very own adventure trip!

UREC offers four adventure trip options for your group to choose from that can be scheduled to fit your calendar and goals. 

Two Wheels and Two Scoops (2 hours) - $100 per group of 10 or fewer (Min 5/Max 10)

Participants will meet at the UREC Adventure Center to get outfitted with bikes and helmets before departing for a road ride through campus and into downtown Harrisonburg. Once downtown, the group will head to Kline’s Dairy Bar for an ice cream or warm beverage before biking back to UREC. UREC will provide both bikes and helmets, however, participants may bring their own if they like. Participants must cover the cost of their own purchase from Kline’s.

Hiking at High Knob (4 hours) - $200 per group of 10 or fewer (Min 5/Max 20)

Participants will ride together in a UREC van out to the High Knob trail head for a 3 mile out and back hike. Participants must wear closed-toed shoes.

Intro to Stand Up Paddle Boarding (4 hours) - $250 per group of 10 or fewer (Min 5/Max 10)

Participants will ride together in a UREC van out to a local lake for an afternoon of standup paddle boarding instruction and play. Once on site, participants will learn the basic techniques of paddling and standing before embarking on a paddle tour of the area. After the trip, the group will load up and head back to UREC.

Canoe the Shenandoah (6 hours) - $350 per group of 10 or fewer (Min 5/Max 18)

Participants will ride together in a UREC van out to a beginner friendly section of the Shenandoah River for a day of canoeing instruction and play. Once participants learn the basic techniques of paddling, the group will cover between 3-7 miles on the river. After the trip, the group will load up and head back to UREC. The specific section of river covered is dependent on the river level on the day of the trip.
