Ever wanted to try backpacking and other outdoor adventures but didn't know how to get started? This class is perfect for both novice and experienced adventurers.
Learn backpacking basics including choosing a backpack, packing your pack, preparedness and safety, and “Leave No Trace” principles and practices. Learn about trail gear like tents, sleeping bags, water filters, backpacking stoves and more. Talk to our experienced club members at our information stations and demonstration area about all our backpacking, hiking, biking, and paddling adventures.
Opportunities to sign-up for our beginner backpacking trips will be available at the event.
The CIWC has been offering affordable outdoor adventure trips since 1982. For over 20 years the club has presented its annual backpacking class, now expanded to include biking and paddling. Join us on adventure trips as close as southern Indiana, or as far away as you can imagine. The presenters are seasoned adventurers with experience in places such as the Appalachian Trail, Grand Canyon, and Canadian wilderness.
The Central Indiana Wilderness Club is a not-for-profit volunteer-run club founded for the purpose of providing reasonably priced wilderness adventure trips for its members. Membership is open to anyone interested in experiencing the great outdoors.
