Our Challenge course programs are focused on a safe, yet challenging experience. The foundation is an organized "ground school" where the techniques of belaying are introduced. Naturalists at Large places emphasis on a successful experience for all of its participants. Participants will dictate the amount of challenge they are comfortable with. This philosophy is referred to as “Challenge by Choice”. In addition to learning safe belaying techniques, students learn to work together toward a common goal.
Naturalists at Large is a leading outdoor and environmental education group in California. Since 1985, we have provided outdoor education programs for tens of thousands of students from over two hundred schools, offering custom client designed trips, flexible dates and locations, commitment to safety and comfort in the outdoors, the wonder of nature and the importance of outdoor and experiential education.
