April brings spring flowers…and the opportunity to take meetings and retreats outdoors. Camelback Resort, in the Pocono Mountains, will be opening several of its attractions over the coming weeks, including: Appalachian Express Mountain Coaster 4,500 feet of steel track and passenger cars that thrillingly zoom down the steep slopes of Camelback Mountain; the 1,000-foot Double Barrel Zipline, offering the thrill of zipping through the trees up to eight stories above ground; Euro Bungee, where participants can do flips and tricks or just enjoy the four-minute exciting jump, and Mountain Segway/UTV (Utility Task Vehicle) Tour – an off-road adventure taking travelers through the forest to experience scenic views and a special visual perspective of the Poconos.
While it may be well known as a destination for family vacations, Camelback Resort also offers full amenities for corporate meetings and retreats, with 20,000 square feet of indoor-outdoor meeting space, including the 3,800-square-foot Camelback Grand Ballroom and the capacity to host receptions for up to 750 attendees. Teambuilding opportunities abound, on the slopes, in Aquatopia, the 125,000-square-foot indoor waterpark, and in the 30,000-square-foot dry adventure center (ropes course, minigolf, laser tag, over 100 arcade games and more) and Camelback Lodge offers 453 hotel guest suites. An easy drive-to destination, Camelback is 90 minutes from New York City and two hours from Philadelphia.
