High Adventure Treks
Growing Relationships, Communication and Leadership through Adventure with our Dads.
High Adventure Treks - HATS
At High Adventure Treks, our mission is to grow relationships, communication, and leadership
through Adventure with our Dads.
We believe that when dads and their daughters and sons step outside their comfort zones together, they build unbreakable bonds and gain lifelong skills. Through outdoor challenges, teamwork, and leadership training, we create experiences that foster confidence, resilience, and connection.
From rugged hikes to our transformative Wilderness Leadership Academy (WLA), every HATS adventure is designed to inspire personal growth and leadership that extends beyond the outdoors. Whether navigating obstacles on the trail or in life, HATS equips young people with the tools to lead with courage, integrity, and purpose.
