Step out onto the trail on an adventure that goes beyond the campsite and leaves the comfort of dining hall songs behind. The sprawling TMR Scout Reservation invites you to challenge yourself, alongside your troop, in the wilds of our Catskill forrest. Backpacking and overcoming obstacles on the trail, while participating in high adventure activities at select program areas, you’ll forge memories that’ll last a lifetime, discover beautiful corners of the Ten Mile River property.
Register now for an exciting week on the Red Dot Trail with your friends!

Ways to Trek
50-Miler
For units that want to carry all the gear, camp and cook in the outdoors, and push themselves to their limits.
High Adventure
For units that want to experience all the adventure TMR has to offer, but pack lighter and eat in dining halls or patrol cooking.
Excursions
For units that want to participate in High Adventure, but not hiking. The unit provides transportation for the Scouts, and they eat and sleep at their main camp.

Historic Trails
The TMR Scout Museum sponsors the Historical Trails Award for registered Troops, Packs, Venture Crews and qualified non-scouting groups hiking these trails. Hikers satisfying trail requirements can earn a beautiful patch and medal with pins for miles hiked. Scouts can earn an additional award pin after a few hours of trail-work. Issued for free by the TMR Museum.
.Craving thrills but not hills?
Excursions lets you conquer epic activities at camp, minus the blisters.
Scouts start each morning by taking merit badges at 9:00 and 10:00 am. They spend the rest of the day plunging into heart-pounding adventures all over the reservation.
NOTE: Unit must provide transportation to some locations.
