Summer camps are the ultimate playground for adventure seekers. If you attended camp yourself, you can probably still picture the times when you were under the warm sun, surrounded by towering trees, and the sound of laughter in the open air. Those moments were priceless!
Now that you’re a parent, you can give your kids the same experiences by sending them to one of Wilderness Adventure’s outdoor summer camp sessions.

Our Outdoor Summer Camp Promise
Wilderness Adventure outdoor summer camp is like no other. We’ve been offering them for decades, and parents continue to trust us with their children’s safety, happiness, and growth! If you’re wondering why you should sign your kids up for our camps, here are our three reasons.
Every Kid Is Welcome
At Wilderness Adventure, we welcome young explorers between the ages of nine and 17 and build a thrilling environment according to their age group. This broad age range promises that everyone can find friends their age, learn from each other, and enjoy camaraderie. These ages are also the most critical developmental stages for a child, and our goal is to make them feel included, challenged, and excited.
Campers Will Not Run Out of Fun Activities
Wilderness Adventure outdoor summer camps are the perfect definition of fun! If you want your kiddos to discover how exciting the outdoors are, whether on water or on land we have a summer camp session to draw them in. In fact, many of our campers attend multiple sessions each summer. Of course, we know fun hinges on safety, so we have trained instructors guiding the campers, and every activity is age-appropriate.
Children Will Love the Beauty of Nature
Our camp is in the heart of nature’s wonderland. The spectacular Blue Ridge Mountains, the mysterious depths of Virginia’s cave systems, and the sparkling waters of the New River are our playground! Camps range from one to three weeks, allowing participants ample time to immerse themselves in these awe-inspiring landscapes and truly cultivate a love for the great outdoors.
Bring Your Kids to the Perfect Place for Outdoor Summer Camp Memories
Wilderness Adventure is always as excited as the kids when the sunny season approaches. We’re all for character-building educational experiences that teach youth self-confidence and extend our dedication to our four guiding principles: Respect, Attitude, Work Ethic, and Character.
There’s nothing like welcoming your camper back home with a new sense of independence and accomplishment after their summer with us. So, before the slots fill up, call for adventure at (540) 864-6792 or get in touch with us online!
