About The Event

Join us for a multi-sport adventure weekend September 27-29, 2024, as we break down barriers and break out of our comfort zones. Designed with passion and purpose, this event aims to break down barriers, creating an inclusive space to unite, camp, and adventure together, free from judgment. Prepare for an exhilarating weekend filled with heart-pounding adventures throughout the New River Gorge National Park. Whether you're an avid hiker, a fearless climber, a passionate mountain biker, a water enthusiast, a multi-sport master or just entering the world of outdoor adventure, we have curated an array of activities that cater to all levels of stoke and expertise.

While we have events that are for every body, this event is designed for people who are often excluded from modern outdoor adventure (women, LGBTQIA2+ community, BIPOC, and others who experience barriers to the outdoors). We know that white male cis-gendered bodies dominate modern outdoor adventure, and we’ve seen it firsthand. We’re eager to rewrite the narrative and redraw the main characters. While everyone's barriers look different, we know one thing for certain - we recognize the transformative power of outdoor adventure and we’re eager to build a community where every body is free to try something new, fail, get muddy, try again, succeed, and have fun.

Please note that tickets should be purchased at least one month in advance to ensure availability of discounted priced add-on clinics and adventures.

Who is the festival for?

This Open Trail Adventure Weekend is for anybody who wants to get outside and explore. It’s for new and seasoned adventurers  - anybody who hasn't had the opportunity to get out and explore, those who want to dive deeper, or those who want to try something new. This weekend is for anybody who wants to adventure in a supportive environment without judgment. Come as an individual, come as a group, just come as you are.
