Northwoods Passage Site

After getting to know the other first year students in your cabin, you’ll want to venture out and explore HoneyRock’s wide variety of activities: you could ride a mountain bike, complete an arts project, and soak in some sun by the waterfront all in the same day. When spending time with your group discussing your reading, don’t be surprised if your discussion is interrupted by a bald eagle flying overhead! Once the sun goes down, plan for a late-night snack in the Beehive store. And if you listen closely around the campfire, you’ll be serenaded by water loons swimming across the lake.

The Equestrian track of Northwoods Passage takes place at the HoneyRock Center for Leadership Development, a campus of Wheaton College. In the Equestrian track, you will become immersed in the world of horses and equestrian training. With the beauty of the Northwoods surrounding you, you will participate in a variety of horsemanship activities such as arena classes, trail rides, and ground-training skills. The horse and rider relationship is a key metaphor used to discuss the spiritual life on Equestrian Passage. While involved in these experiences, you will form close friendships with your peers and leaders.

Here is a sample schedule for the Equestrian track. Students will spend 6+ hours a day at the barn and engage with the HoneyRock herd of 20+ horses.
