Delaware Valley Council is one of 34 local councils (local offices) of Hostelling International-American Youth Hostels (HI-AYH) throughout the US. Although services vary, all local HI-AYH councils provide information and services for potential and current HI-AYH members. At a local office, you can learn about programs such as educational travel seminars, and find out about local activities and volunteer opportunities. Volunteering with your local HI-AYH council can help you keep your connection to travel well after you have returned home.

Delaware Valley Council operates a Travel Center (currently closed for renovation). You can purchase memberships, Eurail passes, backpacks, sleep sacks and other travel items in person. HI-AYH Travel Centers are staffed with experienced travelers who can help with your trip planning.
