What are the different Trail Life program levels?

Trail Life serves boys from ages 5–17, kindergarten through 12th grade, with a program designed to grow with them.

Woodland Trails — Ages 5–10 / Grades K–5
Younger Trailmen learn through hands-on activities, outdoor adventure, skills, games, character development, and biblical teaching. Woodland Trails is divided into three age-based patrols: Foxes (K–1), Hawks (2–3), and Mountain Lions (4–5).

Navigators — Ages 11–13 / Grades 6–8
Navigators begin taking greater ownership of their skills, advancement, service, decisions, and leadership.

Adventurers — Ages 14–17 / Grades 9–12
The oldest Trailmen take on greater independence, leadership, mentoring, service, and advanced challenges as they prepare for Christian manhood.
