About Windsor Mountain International Teen Trips

Windsor Mountain International teen trip programs are designed with utmost care. The program itineraries serve as a vehicle for exploration, rather than a list of tasks that must be accomplished. A hallmark of Windsor Mountain International's approach to student travel is the freedom they allow their trip leaders in making spontaneous changes to any given itinerary in response to the daily needs of the group and to new opportunities as they present themselves. Some of the most magical moments on these programs are those that cannot be planned ahead of time, and are created on the fly by students and experienced trip leaders.

When attending a Windsor Mountain International teen trip, it is essential that each group member embrace a willingness to explore, discover, and learn. At Windsor Mountain, taking a risk means more than doing physical things like bungee-jumping or whitewater rafting or rappelling, it means taking the first step into the unknown, and embracing the exploration of uncharted territories, be they physical, mental, or emotional.
