The forest is calling
Get ready for a new learning adventure by Outriders.
Nature becomes our classroom in this all-new Mt. Qilian trek
Transform your child's weekends with hands-on exploration and forest discoveries.
What is Forest Discovery?
Forest Discovery turns nature walks into exploration! Be a nature detective as you search for insects under logs, spot elements of nature, and collect fallen treasures. Kids use all their senses to investigate the forest's hidden wonders—from different tree barks to bird calls.
Why join
- Help your child grow healthy with active outdoor experiences.
- Give them fresh air and natural exercise away from screens.
- Create lasting family memories while practicing English naturally.
- Spark curiosity through hands-on discoveries.
- Spend quality family time in the outdoors.
WHAT TO BRING
- Comfortable, sturdy walking shoes (no sandals or open-toed footwear)
- Drinks and snacks (we'll have designated break times)
- Rain gear/waterproof jacket (the walk proceeds rain or shine!)
- Mosquito repellent (mandatory for everyone's comfort)
- Your enthusiasm for discovery!
Outriders is a premium program that combines English learning with outdoor experiences.
Outriders delivers outdoor experiences where English learning happens naturally. We believe the best classroom is sometimes not a classroom at all, just adventure, exploration, and real-world English practice.
