Trips Overview
Our office provides a wide variety of outdoor opportunities ranging from one day experiences to two-week trips that visit crags, waterways, caves, and trails from the mid-atlantic region to international locations. We promote exploration, education and respect for the natural environment through our small group experiences.
We emphasize instruction and teaching while on our trips, rather than just guiding an experience. We want our particapants to learn the skills necessary to enjoy the backcounty, so when they embark on their own adventures they have a foundation of ethical and sound Leave No Trace practices.
Our trips are available to anyone associated with the Gettysburg College community--students, faculty, staff, alumni, and their family members. You can sign up in the GRAB office in the basement of plank. For additional information, please feel free to contact us at grab@gettysburg.edu or call 717.337.6309/6319.
All day trips are $5.00
All weekend & break trips $25.00
Trips are subsidized by your student activity fees!
