School has started but that doesn’t mean the fun has to end. We’ve got a weekend-getaway just for families looking to squeeze in some outside fun while the weather is still good!

Join Teen Treks Bike Overnight, a weekend bike-camping experience in Niagara Falls! Bring the whole family, and bike to one of the most iconic destinations in the world! We’ll spend the day biking and exploring Niagara Falls and then bike-to-camp overnight on the coast of Lake Ontario. Bike back the next day and be home with plenty of Sunday rest time before the school week begins!

Register today and reach out if you have any questions about this bike adventure! We hope to see you there!

The one-night event begins in Ithaca, New York where we will ride through the scenic Black Diamond Trail along the second largest Finger Lake, Cayuga Lake. We will camp and hike at the iconic Taughannock Falls State Park and bike back the next day. This is a great introduction to bikepacking the whole family can enjoy over a cool fall weekend!

How do groups spend their “rest days” on a Teen Treks trip? Well, the New England Shore & Cape Cod Trekkers barely rested, filling their day in Martha’s Vineyard with a breakfast of pancakes and waffles, a laundromat visit, exploring towns in MV, jumping off the famous Jaws Bridge and playing in the ocean, scouring the beach for oysters, eating ice cream, going to an outdoor concert, an epic game of duck-duck-goose, and finishing a not-so-rested day with big mugs of hot chocolate. Back on the bike tomorrow with more adventures to come (hopefully they’ll get that rest at some point!)

New England Shore and Cape Cod Trekkers are off to a great start! They are busy exploring Martha’s Vineyard after several days riding the Cape from Provincetown. More adventures to come!

Meet Bike Trip Leader, Alex!

“Greetings! My name is Alex from Rockland County NY. I’m looking forward being a bike trip leader this summer to explore new places, see new beautiful views, challenge myself, and meet new people along the road.

In the past, I have traveled all around New York, from mountains near Saranac Lake to trails around the Finger Lakes. Recently, I have also been biking around Binghamton where I attend school. For hobbies, I am very passionate about beekeeping, sailing, playing guitar, skateboarding, and playing rugby at Binghamton University. Last summer, I volunteered at a farm to showcase and educate the youth about bees and hives. Additionally, I have taught skate lessons to young teens who want to further themselves in skateboarding. Every summer I aim to explore more about myself and the world around me and hope to do so along these journeys with those around me! “

In any worthwhile adventure, there is hiccups along the way. Flat tires, route confusion, unfortunate weather… challenges will occur at times. The group will need to be resourceful and creative at problem-solving, and will surely be surprised by their ability to work their way through an obstacle. Moments of discomfort will bring all the more gratitude for the creature-comforts of dry shelter, warm cooked meals and rest to come. Groups will put their heads together to problem-solve in moments of adversity, and they will realize they are capable of much more than they ever imagine. That sense of confidence carries with trekkers as they head back to school, sports and future endeavors, knowing they have the ability to handle any challenges that come their way.

Every day is a surprise on a bike tour. While groups have a set daily destination, the journey along the way offers opportunities of spontaneity. Groups may discover hidden swimming holes, hear about a great dive restaurant from the locals, or roll up on a street festival. It is the journey to the destination that makes Teen Treks bike trips such an adventure. It is our goal to let teens be the driver of their experience, giving them space to offer suggestions and lead their groups to fun activities they find along the way. We welcome a change of plan as new discoveries are made. In every good adventure, we find it is the unexpected moments that remain memorable.
