Hiking
The best way to see Sitka is on the trail. Whether you want to climb
mountains or check out some of our beautiful easier trails, rec staff
will take you there. We offer weekly hikes on various trails of varying
difficulties. Sign up for hikes now and hopefully by your senior year,
you will have the opportunity to climb to the top of Mt. Edgecumbe
volcano.

Kayaking
The other best way to see Sitka is by water! MEHS owns a fleet of kayaks
and takes students regularly afterschool and on the weekends... as long
as the weather cooperates. In the Spring, we try to plan an overnight
camping trip to some of the beautiful islands in the area.

Camping
After a long week of studying hard it is important to take a break and
unwind. What better way to relax then with a camping trip with your
friends? We take camping trips during the warmer months to several of
the cabins near Sitka.

And Much, Much More!
Biking, softball, snowshoeing, capture the flag, ultimate Frisbee, trail
running, polar plunges, sledding, ice skating, and so many other
outdoor activities! Our rec staff loves to be outdoors and wants to
share our enthusiasm with our students. We are also always open to
suggestions, so feel free to find a rec staff and share your idea.
