“The experiences over the last four hikes has offered me the perspective to start college with a stronger faith and relationship with God. These hikes have helped me cement steps toward truth, loving my neighbor as myself, finding joy in all moments, and enacting unconditional love in my everyday life.”

“The program was amazing. The fellowship was great. The hike was unbelievably hard but worth every step. You have a wonderful staff that proved time and time again that they were passionate about their faith and always showed their knowledge and professionalism.”

“Trail taught me to be grateful for all parts of the journey—including the struggles. There is a persistent atmosphere of joy on this property. In all things, we celebrate what’s happening to and around us. When the same trilogy of drinks is announced every retreat day, everyone shouts along in excitement. When we wake up at 6 AM on hiking day 1, blaring music and rowdy yells fill the air. When it starts raining, we put on our rain jackets and start dancing. We don’t take any moment for granted. Even the most mundane or uncomfortable situations call for an attitude of joy at Trail.”
