EasyFor people looking to exercise their minds more than their bodies. There’s minimal walking and not too many stairs.
ModerateThese programs get you on your feet and include activities such as walking up to a mile in a day through a city and standing in a museum for a few hours.
ActiveFor people who enjoy walking as much as two miles a day, perhaps to explore historic neighborhoods or a nature trail.
Moderately ChallengingFor hardy explorers who enjoy a good physical challenge, spending most of their days on the go.
ChallengingGet ready to keep up with our highest-energy group. These demanding — and rewarding — programs are for seasoned outdoor enthusiasts.

Theodore Roosevelt National Park
Discuss the influence of Roosevelt’s experience as a cowboy and rancher in North Dakota on his future presidency, and for his enduring contributions to the conservation of our nation's resources.

Lewis and Clark Winter in North Dakota
Lewis and Clark spend the winter of 1804 in North Dakota where they hunted and engaged in trade with the Mandan Indians. Here they met Sakakawea, their guide across the Bitteroot Mountains to Fort Clatsop.

North Dakota State Capital and Heritage Center
The North Dakota State Capital is also the home of the Roughrider Hall of Fame. The Heritage Center features North Dakota history and displays one of the world's few mummified dinosaurs, found in North Dakota. Participants are expected to walk about one-fourth of a mile during the course of a day and be able to handle their own luggage.
