The Queens' University Outdoors Club is a club open to anyone in the Queen's community that wants to experience some of the wild and wonderful experiences that can be had outside. 

 

The QUOC runs a multitude of trips; usually 2 or 3 per weekend! Most trips are open to any skill level and experience, however some trips will require that you have some previous knowledge or physical ability. Most of our members and many of our Executive joined the club with no gear, outdoors knowledge, or experience. But after a few trips with the club, many picked up a wealth of knowledge and experienced some once in a lifetime adventures.

 

Our trips range from casual hiking, canoeing and camping to more intense and involved activities such as mountaineering, whitewater kayaking, dog sledding, ice climbing - and everything in between! As a member, you can sign up for any of these, and spots are allocated via a blind lottery process, with priority given to those that have not yet been on a trip. You can check out some of our upcoming and past trips on our gallery page. We run our trips at cost - all the fees for each trip goes towards food, gas, and facility costs.
