Metro-Wilderness Adventure

Metro-Wilderness Adventure groupStart rallying your teammates! Wildlands Conservancy’s fifth annual Metro-Wilderness Adventure Race will not only test your endurance but also challenge your mind.

Dubbed the Lehigh Valley’s premier “thinking-person’s triathlon,” three-person teams (coed teams are welcome) will race along the Bethlehem-to-Allentown reach of the Lehigh Mountain and Lehigh River corridor using a topographic map and compass to locate strategically placed checkpoints and compete in“survivor type” challenges.

The race objective is to collect as many points as possible within the four-hour time limit. Teams will hike, bike,swim, paddle, and orienteer along an approximate 10-mile course. The winner of the Metro-Wilderness Adventure Race is not always the swiftest or the fittest team … but rather the team that makes the best decisions!
