Who We Are
Into the Wilderness (ITW) is a Christian outdoor ministry that creates space for people to disconnect from distractions, experience authentic community, and encounter God in the beauty and challenge of the Italian Alps and Dolomites.
Since 2009, we’ve been organizing transformational adventures — welcoming individuals, youth, and families to disconnect from the noise, experience real community, and explore deeper questions about life, identity, and God.
Through hiking, canyoning, wild camping, rafting, high-altitude living, and more — we create space to reset, reflect, and reconnect with what truly matters.
Our Mission
To guide people into a deeper relationship with God, helping them rediscover their true identity, grow in character, and return to their daily lives equipped, transformed, and sent with purpose.
Our Vision
A generation of young people and families who know who they are, know who God is, and are ready to live with boldness, compassion, and integrity — in every environment they walk into.
Our Values
To live with faith at the center, helping people grow in their identity in Christ, build strong character through discipleship and community, and step into the world with courage, integrity, and purpose.
What Makes ITW Different
We believe that meeting God doesn’t only happen in a cathedral — sometimes it happens around a campfire, on a mountaintop, or while facing your fears on a rock wall.
We create a space where you encounter:
- Adventure – Real challenge. Real adrenaline. Real memories.
- Community – No filters. No competition. Just belonging.
- Faith – Not religion, but a real relationship with God.
- Identity – A place to ask: Who am I really? And who was I made to be?
- Purpose – Discover what it means to live with meaning — and take that back into your everyday world.
Choose Your Adventure
Through our three core programs — reBOOT, reNEW, and reCALL — you’ll be challenged, encouraged, and equipped for more than just the trail ahead.
This isn’t just a trip — it’s a launchpad.
