Empower Trek

Empower Trek takes our message to the hiking trails in the Adirondack Mountains. A life-impacting experience, Empower Trek is a charity challenge that connects female adults with our mission in a powerful and memorable way.

Designed for women who are interested in exploring the Adirondack Mountains while connecting with themselves and others in a meaningful way, Empower Treks provides the ideal blends of contemporary comforts residing at a modern lodge with embarking on an outdoor adventure of majestic beauty.

Trek Highlights:

•  Discover and explore the largest park in the contiguous United States! At 6 million acres, the Adirondacks is almost the size of the state of Vermont. 
• Hike the enchanting forested paths, along creeks and waterfalls, up the rocky trails to mountain summits with breathtaking views.  
• Experience cozy accommodations at Cadence Lodge with home-cooked meals and modern amenities. Enjoy toasty outdoor camp fires and a calming ambiance! 
• Empower Camp magic - because creating a network of Empowered women is kind of our thing!
• Give back to young women in our community by raising funds for the Empower Camp Scholarship fund as part of your involvement.

Empower Trek 2020 will be hosted in the Adirondack Mountains from September 18-20, 2020.

The cost per trekker is $500 and includes two nights lodging at Cadence Lodge, meals as outlined in the Meal section below, custom Empower Camp programming sessions (see Agenda below), a dry-fit long-sleeve Empower Trek shirt, a buff for each participant, park fees, and applicable local taxes.   

Physical Preparedness:

Trekkers can expect to be on the trail for 8-10 hours and should be in the appropriate physical shape to take on this challenge. Trip members should be able to hike up to 13 miles including an elevation gain/loss of 3,000 feet.

Empower Trek gives back to Empower Camp:

As part of the experience, Trekkers will be asked to make a minimum commitment to raise $320 for the Empower Camp Scholarship Fund which is the cost to send one young woman to our summer camp program. 

Registration:

Spaces are limited. Registration will open in January 2020.
