AREA & ACTIVITIES

The program will run from 9:00 am – 5:00 pm each day (Monday to Friday), starting at the Evergreen Brick Works, accessible by car, public transportation and on foot or by bike. Each week will feature an optional overnight on Thursday evening as your introduction to campcraft! Explore new heights while learning to climb: high ropes and rock climbing, enjoying areas of the Evergreen Brick Works, indoor climbing facilities, and Rattlesnake Point on the Niagara Escarpment. Discover and build your physical and mental strength while honing your climbing skills, equipment familiarization and top-rope safety techniques with new peers in beautiful urban wilderness settings!

LEARNING OUTCOMES

Our expert instructors will lead you through unique challenges that require your group to work together to problem-solve, reflect on your learning and discuss how to apply your skills and learning once you return home. The course is designed to have a lasting and
measurable impact in three key areas:

Improved resilience

Improve your mental and physical health while learning how to overcome challenges to thrive.

Greater leadership and teamwork skills

Learn the skills needed to succeed at school, work and in life by becoming more confident, collaborative and a respectful team member.

Stronger connection with nature

Develop a life-long relationship with nature.

SOLO

Every Outward Bound Canada course incorporates a solo experience. It’s an opportunity to take time for self-reflection. Instructors are close enough to offer support if needed. The solo is not a challenge of survival in the wilderness but rather a supportive environment to take time for yourself, away from the distractions of everyday life. While it may seem like a daunting challenge at first, it is often the most impactful part of the course, as you get an opportunity that few others will ever experience – being with your own company in beautiful natural spaces.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

We believe everyone should have access to exploring nature. We offer full scholarships to help cover the cost of course fees, and the Youth Access Fund offers financial support for those unable to personally finance their Outward Bound Canada experience.
