12-Day Explorers Woodsies

During a 12-day stay, campers aged 11 to 12 enjoy an experience that combines life at Camp YMCA Kanawana with a multiday wilderness adventure. 

Alongside camp activities, Explorers prepare for a four-day camping trip in the Papineau-Labelle Wildlife Reserve combining canoeing and hiking. 

This is an opportunity to build independence and develop their team spirit and outdoor skills while taking on new challenges.

Experience a Canoe-Camping Adventure

Our Explorers Woodsies program in the heart of nature

Guided by an experienced team, campers set off on a canoe-camping adventure and experience life in the great outdoors. Paddling, setting up camp, cooking together, and sharing stories around the campfire are all part of the journey. It’s an immersive experience that lets them discover remarkable landscapes while building independence, teamwork, and self-confidence.
