Backpacking for Seniors
Senior Backpacking
July 15th - 16th, 2025
Have you always wanted to try backpacking, or perhaps haven't done so for a while, and feel that it may now be beyond your ability? This trip is designed to encourage you to come out on an adventure that is designed for you. We will ensure a light pack, a leisurely pace and a fairly level trail that encourages us to look up and around, enjoying our time as we journey together. Let us work with you to ensure a safe and comfortable overnight in the woods.

We will meet at Faith UM Church in Montoursville, PA to outfit everyone and then carpool to the trailhead just north of Williamsport. Cost for the trip is $225 per person and all backpack equipment and food is provided. A list of needed items for each person to bring will be provided. Deep Green Journey is committed to ensuring that anyone who would like to join us for a backpacking experience is able to do so. Every trip offers scholarships and a variety of pricing options to provide accessibility to all.
