Three days in the breath-taking Andean foothills is the perfect spot for members to put their “real lives” on hold and reconnect with their child through outdoor adventure. This parent-child getaway promises quality time and unforgettable, meaningful fun.

Members, accompanied by a child age 8-13, will share in a collective sense of accomplishment as together they transcend challenges and fulfill aspirations.

  • The focus is on self-awareness and personal growth through such adventures as a ropes course, a climbing wall and a challenge tower.
  • The program lasts for only one long weekend, but 40 parent-child teams create a lifetime of memories.
  • Families spend a day completing social services projects for the local community.
  • Last year’s Parent-Child Adventures in the Andes scored a perfect 10 – the program is again managed by Outward Bound Ecuador.
