Outdoor Adventures

Based in the Adirondack Mountains, Camp Chateaugay is a short distance from the coveted High Peaks region of the park. Our Outdoor Adventure programs take advantage of our location, and campers enjoy backpacking, canoeing or rock climbing in the breathtaking wilderness, and canoeing on magnificent lakes in the area, including the Saranac Lakes.

The Outdoor Adventures program is supervised by experienced staff members with extensive outdoor experience, who teach our campers the value of nature, low impact camping, and many outdoor skills like safe campfire building and cooking, putting up tents and map reading Older campers are taught how to plan, organize, and pack out for trips, and are given leadership positions in a group setting.

In addition to canoe and hiking trips, which each cabin may enroll for, our Outdoor Adventures also offer extended sailing on our tremendous lake, white-water rafting, rock-climbing, and other additional overnights.
