Best of all every activity and trip that we put together is complimentary to all High Point University Students. The HPU Outdoor Discovery team loves ADVENTURE and we love taking people along with us. We enjoy the challenges, adrenaline and beauty of being outside and discovering the outdoors. Outdoor Discovery is a way for High Point University Students to experience firsthand challenges, excitement and adventure.
