The Long Walk Home’s first hiking/camping bootcamp challenge! A self discovery adventure.

Come hike and camp, with us in at a beautiful state park in Florida! This hiking/camping event is for Veterans and/or their families.

Adults only. Ages 18 and older.

Take the 10 Challenges to Service, with us during this event. The 10 Challenges are a self discovery adventure. They are a series of personal empowerment challenges. You can read more about our Challenges by clicking here. This is the first step to becoming a mentor for The Long Walk Home.

Be prepared to hike on uneven terrain for approximately 5-7 miles per day and camp overnight.

The Long Walk Home will provide tents, air mattresses, backpack if you need one, trekking poles if needed, sit pads, chairs, breakfast and dinner and other camping gear. You only need to bring your sleeping bag or blankets and pillow and packable lunches. If you bring your own gear, we need to know.

Must bring your own bedroll/sleeping bag & pillow, along with packable lunches, with items like protein bars, beef jerky, or peanut butter and crackers. We have trekking poles, and backpacks but you may bring your own.

Breakfast and Dinner will be provided. Bring packable lunch.

The attending group will be divided into squads, with squad leaders. If you are one of our mentors, please let us know if you would like to lead a squad.
