Road Scholar educational adventures are created by Elderhostel, Inc., the not-for-profit world leader in lifelong learning since 1975.
For over 20 years, Mountain Trails Outdoor Learning Center (formerly Davis Mountains Education Center) has organized and led highly rated Road Scholar tours in Texas and northern Mexico, including Copper Canyon. Participants learn about astronomy, botany, birding, geology, history and the varied cultures in the region.
