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.

Lives And Poetry Of Lord Byron And Percy Shelley
The love lives of swashbuckling Byron and passionate Shelley were as radical as their politics and poetry. Examine their works and the women they loved, including Lady Caroline Lamb, Augusta Leigh and Mary W. Shelley, author of "Frankenstein."

Black Robes Of Power
Isolated in closed chambers, nine unelected Justices comprise the branch of our government most shrouded in mystery, misunderstanding and myth. See how the Court operates as law, politics, and personalities collide within this inner sanctum.

Folk Songs Of The British Isles
Celebrate the life and culture of these people through their ancient body of folk song. From old ballads and carols, love songs, songs of war, sea and pub, hymns and Celtic airs to the songs of Robert Burns, enjoy singing and hearing timeless tunes.



Activity Notes

All facilities are in one building, with approximately 300 yards walking required; a few stairs. Outside areas are mountainous, with inclines and uneven terrain.

Coordinated by Montreat Conference Center.
