Trips hosted by Auburn Outdoors are open to all Recreation and Wellness members. However, please keep in mind that trips are designed for Auburn University students.

Auburn Outdoors trips range in cost depending on the type of trip, activities, and location. Typically, the following are included in the trip cost: • Transportation • Food • Trip Gear (boats, tents, sleeping bags, etc.) • Fees for Trip Activities Trip costs do not include items such as souvenirs or personal items.

Auburn Outdoors provides trip related gear such as boats, tents, sleeping bags, etc. Trip participants are responsible for providing personal clothing. Don’t worry – we’ll provide a suggested packing list for each trip ahead of time.

Let us know! We ask that you share any dietary needs or restrictions on your Participant Profile filled out during the pre-trip meeting. We also encourage you to talk to the trip leader to help identify foods that fuel you that we can ensure we have on trip. If there is a dietary need or restriction you’d like to talk with us about prior to the pre-trip meeting, please reach out to us at auburnoutdoors@auburn.edu.

Auburn Outdoors provides transportation to the trip destination, travel while on trip, and the return trip to Auburn.

A required pre-trip meeting is scheduled for all weekend or extended trips. At this meeting, you’ll meet others going on the trip, learn about what to bring, and what to expect day to day on the trip. If you do not attend the pre-trip meeting, you will not be permitted to attend the trip and will not receive a refund of your trip fee.

Auburn Outdoors’ student staff and professional staff guide our trips! Students are taught leadership skills and activity skills for all activities that they are guiding. All Auburn Outdoors’ guides are First Aid/CPR trained and at least one guide is trained in Wilderness First Aid or higher.

If you're on a waitlist for a trip, it means the trip is currently full. If a spot opens up due to a cancellation, we'll email the first person on the waitlist. You have 24 hours to respond and pay the trip cost to secure your spot. If you don't respond in time, we'll move to the next person on the list.
