Hike, Climb, and Paddle Your Way Into Your College Career
Odyssey is an adventure-based program for first-year students at SUNY Plattsburgh.
'It is so fulfilling. You feel ready to take on anything.' - Odyssey participant
Odyssey gives you a smooth transition to college life through specially guided group experiences in the spectacular natural environment of the Lake Champlain-Adirondack mountain region. No prior outdoor experience is required.
Your Odyssey adventure will let you hike an Adirondack Mountain peak, rock-climb in the Adirondacks, challenge yourself on our low-ropes course, and paddle the waters of Lake Champlain or nearby rivers and lakes.
Join our expert faculty for an exciting and informative college experience that you'll never forget!
Create Your Own Adventure With New Friends
As a transition to college life, Odyssey introduces you to fellow students and faculty in settings that make interaction easy. It's a great opportunity to create your own adventure with new friends and begin your college experience at SUNY Plattsburgh.
Other Odyssey benefits include:
- Six days of incredible Adirondack adventures.
- Six nights at Twin Valleys, the college's Outdoor Educational Center in Lewis, NY.
- Early check-in to your residence hall (avoid those move-in day crowds!).
