Structure

The Adamah Adventure begins as Jewish teens from around the region arrive at Base Camp near Atlanta for team building games; outdoor skills and wilderness first aid training; goal setting and community building; and a Shabbat celebration with the entire Adamah Adventures family.

Teens are then divided into smaller trek groups of 9 to 12 campers along with three experienced Adamah Adventures staff. They set out on their trek to either the Blue Ridge Mountains in Northern Georgia and Tennessee, or they head to the airport to fly out to Utah or the Pacific Northwest.

Each trek includes a variety of outdoor activities -- hiking, climbing, and rafting – along with plenty of time to relax, swim or just hang out together. Most nights are spent at campsites, with campers and staff cooking and eating together. Often there is music, stories, and discussion.

At the end of the trek, the Adamah Adventure family returns to Base Camp to celebrate, as one community, all that has been accomplished – individually and collectively. The adventure concludes with a final Shabbat celebration and closing campfire.
