Authentic New England Adventures

In Maine, create your own surfboards with Grain Surfboards, offering beautiful, artisan crafted sustainable solutions in board-making. A 5-day workshop camp provides all materials with seasoned instructors guiding the way. While in the area, also check out the beautiful nearby beaches to christen your new creation, then splurge on some local seafood and a micro beer in the local charming towns.

A deep-rooted tradition in Europe, hut-to-hut hiking is still a relatively new experience in the United States. Its oldest and best-known system is in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, where the Appalachian Mountain Club built its first hut in 1888. The high mountain huts in the Presidential Range are separated from one another by a day’s hike. Experience this unique hike and enjoy the camaraderie, good food, and restful sleep these shelters provide.
