Embark on an Adventure: One-Week Introductory Backpacking Camp

Give your young adventurer the chance to explore the wonders of Minnesota’s legendary Superior Hiking Trail with our one-week introductory camp session! Spanning 300 miles from Duluth to just south of the Canadian border, this remarkable footpath offers campers a unique opportunity to connect with nature in its purest form. Our backpacking trip is thoughtfully designed to help young adventurers build essential backcountry skills while fostering a deep appreciation for the wilderness. With experienced guides leading the way, your child will trek through expansive forests and serene lakes, encounter diverse wildlife, and camp at remote, peaceful sites. Not only will this journey cultivate practical outdoor skills, but it will also instill confidence and independence as campers learn to navigate and thrive in the great outdoors. Join us for an unforgettable experience in one of Minnesota’s most beautiful landscapes!
