Backpacking 101: Side Cut Overnight (Adults 18+)

Silver Lake Area Parking Lot
Friday, September 25, 5 p.m. to Saturday, September 26, 10 a.m.

Unlock exclusive overnight access to the Silver Lake overlook and wake up to a spectacular sunrise over the Maumee River (no expensive gear or camping experience required)!

Leave the stress of the work week behind and join us for an experience that gives you the adventure of backpacking without the heavy lifting. For one all-inclusive price, we provide the tents, sleeping bags, sleeping pads, and all the cooking equipment.

This program is perfect for beginners who want to try backpacking in a safe, guided environment. We will begin with how to load a pack and enjoy a short hike to our campsite where you will learn how to pitch a tent, build a fire, use cooking gear, and best camping practices. We then navigate the trails for a moonlit hike around Side Cut and enjoy campfire treat. You’ll sleep in a section of the park usually closed to the public. The next morning you’ll wake up to a stunning river view.
