Adventure Trek at Little Creek Lodge

“Discover your true self physically, emotionally and spiritually”

Life demands all the strength you possess. Why not enjoy the adventure? At Little Creek Lodge, residents are encouraged to find their strengths together, and to forge life-long relationships with men they trust. By taking advantage of all that Mother Nature has to offer, either here in the woods of Pennsylvania, or in trips outside our borders, residents often rediscover parts of themselves they thought were long lost – and have a blast while they do it.

The recovery process can be challenging, but when you are surrounded by family, nothing is impossible.

What is Adventure Trek?

Adventure Trek is part of our Recreation Therapy program, designed to push residents to the limits and beyond. Time spent outdoors can renew the mind, body and spirit, and remind residents that anything is possible. Residents are empowered to make good choices about their futures, and can celebrate their successes with their peers.

The three goals of the Adventure Trek program

At Little Creek, we encourage our residents to find their strength and empower themselves. Our goals for the residents are:

Develop New Strengths: In the progression of addiction, internal strength is drained, motivation is lost, and value systems are compromised. Adventure Trek outings are designed to re-awaken the individual’s imagination and present new challenges.
Creating A Peak Experience: Whether hiking on a trail in the mountains, kayaking down a river, or zip-lining through a forest, something happens to a person when he is surrounded by nature. Someone previously isolated and emotionally shut down due to active addiction can experience feelings of peace or joy he may not have believed were possible.
Cultivate Teamwork & Trust: Adventure Trek activities demand teamwork and trust. The Treks are designed to be team-integrated. Group members must help one another in order to achieve a common goal. Addiction renders individuals completely self-centered and ego driven. The Adventure Trek is designed to bring back the ability to work with others and feel good about it.

Life is the greatest adventure; Let Little Creek support you in it

At Little Creek Lodge, we want residents to feel empowered to make good choices for themselves and for their futures. Part of our holistic approach to the recovery process involves the Adventure Trek: a program designed to keep you out in the fresh air. If you or your loved one is struggling with addiction, please call 877-689-2644, or fill out our contact form to learn more.
