Adventure World Releases Trips for the Twihards

Adventure World Releases Twilight Trips for the Ultimate ‘Twihards’
Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight saga has taken the world by storm. Now fans of the global vampire phenomenon can embark on a Twilight adventure of their own with Adventure World offering Twilight inspired tours through Oregon and Washington State.

To celebrate the release of the third instalment in the Twilight film saga, Eclipse, Adventure World is offering fans of the vampire flick the chance to visit the locations made famous by the films and novels on a Twilight inspired tour through Oregon and Washington State.

Departing on the full moon, travellers on the action packed 12 day TrekAmerica camping tour will get the opportunity to fully immerse themselves in the world of Twilight, standing where Twilight stars Bella and Edward once stood and exploring many of the sights featured in the films.

They’ll also get a “taste” for the "Great Outdoors" visiting some of the most beautiful National Parks and scenic areas the United States has to offer.

See what lurks in the night on a nocturnal kayak ride through Scappoose Bay and explore the small town of St Helens in Oregon, where much of the movies were filmed.

Take a hike through the stunning North American wilderness including Mount Rainier National Park, Olympic National Park and Silver Falls State Park - which play a “starring role” in the tour - and “suck up” the atmosphere of the scenic outdoor settings used in the films, such as the beach where werewolf Jacob tells Bella about Quileute legends; Multnomah Falls where Bella plays baseball with the Cullens; and the Trail of Ten Falls, where many of the forest scenes were filmed.
