I think for older readers- maybe high school? The Eagle and the Ninth by Rosemary Sutcliff is supposed to be a good historical adventure. (I haven’t read it myself but this list had so much historical fiction it brought it to mind!)

Also Elizabeth Laird’s Hiding Out was once recommended by Dixie Dillon Lane as an adventure story - I can’t recall if I saw it here!

Mine is a bit younger, but Ronja the Robber's Daughter is so beautiful in depicting the young girl's experiences in the woods.
