About The Event

Backpack along the Tunxis Trail through 9,152 acres of old growth forest and hardwoods while you learn and practice new skills, test out gear and enjoy some of the best views in the area. Sleep under the stars with a crackling fire while you share the wilderness area with bear and moose. This 13.4 mile out-and-back trip will bring us by waterfalls, through dense woodlands to a ravine and down an exciting section of house sized boulders with some technical scrambling.

This trip is open to all though you will most likely find it suitable if you are: 

- First-time backpacker with some day-hiking, car-camping experience and are interested in learning to go on more overnight or multi-day trips

- Beginner backpacker who wants to improve know-how

- Intermediate backpacker who wants to improve skills and modernize gear

- Advanced backpacker looking for a refresher or a new adventure
