Nestled in the heart of New England, the Berkshire Mountains beckon adventurers with their breathtaking beauty and boundless opportunities for exploration. Towering peaks, lush forests, and meandering rivers paint a picturesque backdrop for outdoor enthusiasts seeking an all-out adventure. Whether you're hiking along scenic trails, paddling across tranquil lakes, or embarking on a thrilling zip-line tour through the canopy, the Berkshires offer endless possibilities for adrenaline-fueled fun. As the seasons change, so too does the landscape, with vibrant foliage in the fall, snow-covered slopes in the winter, and blooming wildflowers in the spring and summer. With its stunning vistas and diverse terrain, the Berkshires provide the perfect playground for those craving an unforgettable outdoor experience.
This is no ordinary haven. These 1000 acres come equipped with kayaks, canoes, rowboats, sailboats, paddle boards, and two boats for waterskiing and wakeboarding. Lakefront activities are complemented with everything from a high ropes course, to an Arts and Crafts building, to archery, to tennis, and on and on. If it’s fun to do outside, chances are you’ll find it there.
Some of our staff have been working together since the days of Eco Challenge and Primal Quest in the early 2000s. Since then, they have been snowballing their knowledge around adventure tourism. Whether it be logistics in Fiji, operations in the San Juan Islands, or ecotourism in Costa Rica, there is no question you will see these faces together, time and time again.
Registration covers three nights lodging, all of your meals Friday night through Monday morning, all activities on camp, all racing, music, and more.
Transportation to camp and alcohol (BYOB).
Next to zero, minus a memento or snack from the camp store. Something like a shirt from Arts and Crafts to tie dye may come at an additional charge too.
This long weekend is definitely a choose your own adventure. You could find yourself on every watercraft, playing every land sport, and going on every morning race + afternoon hike. Or…you could find yourself a quiet spot to read a book, take a nap, and explore the waterfalls off the Appalachian Trail. You can fall asleep early or stay up all night. It’s really up to you.
You can be in your 20s or your 60s. You can be single or married with kids. You can come all by yourself and make a ton of friends, or bring a whole group and strengthen your bonds. It just doesn’t matter. Because when all is said and done, we’re all the same. We’re Race2Adventure.
If you live out West, lighting fires regularly, and constantly being concerned about massive fires, is an unfortunate reality. The Northeast is fortunate enough to not share identical concerns. Bonfires on the beach, large fire pits adjacent to lodges and small fire pits adjacent to the rustic cabins are the norm at camp.
Runs down the mountain are absolutely possible, although not encouraged. The idea is get up to camp, park your car (for good!), disconnect from your devices and connect with one another.
Yes…but it’s limited. If you absolutely must stay connected to the outside world, don’t worry, there’s a way to do it. But again…the more you can disconnect from your devices, the better off you’ll be.
Absolutely. From vegetarian, to nut allergies, to gluten free needs. That said, they can only cater to needs so much. So although we’ll be able to accommodate dietary needs, if you’d like to bring some of your own snacks to complement what’s prepared for you, you absolutely may. Just make sure it’s carefully stored as to not attract wildlife into the cabins.
