Virginia Appalachians Trail Running, Hiking, & Wine Trip
This immersive Adventure Society journey blends trail running, backcountry exploration, and refined wine culture in Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains. Over three days, members will move through ridgelines, forests, and open valleys by foot, then slow things down with evenings rooted in local vineyards and harvest-season energy. Designed as an expedition, not a vacation, this trip brings together challenge, connection, and place, all with a small, curated group.
Mt. Washington Hut-to-Hut Alpine Expedition
This immersive Adventure Society expedition takes members deep into New Hampshire’s White Mountains to explore Mount Washington’s iconic hut system through trail running and fast hiking. Moving hut-to-hut across exposed ridgelines and alpine terrain, we’ll experience true mountain conditions…where weather, navigation, and resilience are part of the journey. Designed as an intentional expedition (not a vacation), this trip brings together endurance, skill, and connection in one of the most demanding and storied mountain environments in the Northeast.
Azores Trail Running & Adventure Expedition
This immersive Adventure Society expedition takes members to the Azores—where volcanic landscapes, ocean cliffs, and cloud forests collide. Centered around trail running and movement through rugged, uncrowded terrain, the journey blends physical challenge with moments of recovery in geothermal hot springs and encounters with one of the world’s richest marine ecosystems. Designed as an intentional expedition—not a vacation—this trip brings together endurance, exploration, and connection in a global model for sustainable adventure.

Adirondacks Trail Running / Hiking Trip | September 12 - 14, 2025
The Adventure Society is a social club for NYC's physically active business & community leaders. Helping you Thrive in the Wild, by building stronger leaders through mindful movement and meaningful connections. Our trips are organized with a curated group of subject matter experts, thought leaders, and those that are adventurous at heart.
Trip Overview 📌
Summit 3 of the Adirondack's 46 high mountain peaks, while spending the time connecting with your peers and nature. We will depart in the morning and run/hike to the summit(s). Then enjoy the rest of the day swimming in Heart Lake, sharing stories, exploring the Adirondacks, and enjoying the comforts of the Loj.
We will divide into groups of runners/hikers. We do not expect everyone to have the fitness of Kilian Jornet, but the most important thing is that you come prepared to conquer this challenge and give it your all.
