Our outdoor recreation-based adventures include guided hikes, paddling trips, forest bathing, yoga, group discussions, and community building. We support veterans on their healing journey and provide tools to help them transition to civilian life. Our unique nature-based approach promotes resiliency and further empowers participants to positively cope with stress, strengthen connections, and renew their sense of purpose.

At Resilient Veteran Adventures (RVA), we offer free unique transformative backcountry adventures for veterans. Our trips take place in Southern Appalachia within the stunning trails and rivers of the Cherokee National Forest. This natural setting fosters a unique opportunity for self-discovery, reflection, healing, and connection with fellow veterans. Each journey is designed to support mental wellness and foster a sense of camaraderie among participants.
