Virginia is for outdoor leadership

Randolph-Macon’s location, just 90 miles south of Washington, D.C., and minutes outside of Richmond, is packed with opportunities for outdoor adventure. And our brand of exploring it teaches student leadership skills as we explore the natural world.

Explore nearby landmarks like the Blue Ridge Mountains, Virginia Beach, the James River, Lake Anna, Lake Louisa, and many more hills, streams, and parks!

Trips and adventures take students, faculty, and staff near and far for day trips, weekend adventures, and extended trips over the fall and spring breaks. Join us to go backpacking, kayaking, rock climbing, caving, rafting, canoeing, skiing, hiking, and more!
