While all of our learning adventures offer extraordinary value, our "Best Value" programs were rated by our participants themselves who thought their dollar went particularly far.
Love to learn in a small-group setting? This collection of programs has at most 10-24 participants.
See our Small Group programs.
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.
Rivers and streams run through this gorgeous Colorado mountain valley, providing a setting to experience fly fishing, whether you’re trying to perfect your style or just starting to “get hooked.” Practice fly casting and learn what fly works best in which conditions. All around you breathtaking lake and mountain views add to the joy of this active but relaxing pursuit.


Highlights

• Enjoy three full days of fly fishing on the river — “catch and release” is preferred.
• Learn the natural science of streams as it relates to fishing including river dynamics, river ecology and insect behavior.
• Fish for several varieties of trout: rainbow, brown, and cutthroat, to name a few.
Due to the nature of this program, listening devices are not available.

Activity Notes

Walking over uneven terrain. Standing in fast-moving streams. Elevations of up to 9,000 feet.

Coordinated by Lakeview Education Center.
