Adventure Courses

Challenge Course Activities

Your adventure course can now include The Nessy, a new activity in the challenge course industry that uses teeter tottering (swinging) beams suspended by cables as a means of crossing from one platform to another.

For pricing and to learn more, visit our Adventure Course page or email olp@lynchburg.edu. Max. group size is 12.

The Outdoor Leadership Program offers outdoor activities and classes for both the College and the community that emphasize "experiential learning" - learning by doing.

If you join one of our activities, you will not only have a great time and learn new skills, you'll increase your appreciation and respect for both the natural world and other people.
