Backpacking with Zephyr Point is back and better than ever! Join us as we launch the Wilderness Adventure Camp. A revitalization of our High Camp program, this unique summer adventure is designed to give participants of all ages an opportunity to experience the joys of backcountry camping. On this 3-night backcountry excursion, participants will hike and camp alongside our certified team of guides to experience the diverse forests, wide open grass meadows, granite cliffs and alpine lakes throughout the Lake Tahoe Region.
Wilderness Adventure Camp is an educational and exciting adventure for students of all abilities and experience levels. By the end of their course, participating students will be able to demonstrate their comprehension in areas such as backpacking, map and compass navigation, Leave No Trace ethics, and knowledge of Tahoe basin trees and wildlife.
Zephyr Point provides all backpacking equipment needed such as, packs, tents, stoves, etc. See you outside!
Who says adults can’t go to summer camp? In Summer 2024, one session will be offered for adult participants who want to experience the best of backcountry camping without all the planning.
