Creating caring and motivated youth

Canoe Trip Programs – Ages 10–16

For campers who are looking to build their skills to enjoy the outdoors and experience the magical world of tripping, we offer immersive wilderness experiences that last from a few days to a few weeks. Over the course of their canoe trips, campers will paddle, portage, make camp, gather round a campfire, and make lifelong memories. This is a wonderful opportunity for campers to connect more deeply to nature and experience the beauty of an Ontario wilderness park.

Our Junior Trip and Algonquin Canoe Adventure programs offer campers an introduction to canoe tripping. Shorter in duration, our fully trained tripping staff work to give campers the opportunity to build their skills over the course of the trip. Our Senior Trips are longer, more in-depth trips designed to challenge campers and give them the chance to further enhance their tripping skills.

“My daughter got to try new activities that she never would have been able to try. Through the rest of the summer and fall, she would bring up stories of some of the things they did at camp.
