Overnight experiences
Experience camping for the first time with Learn-to Camp
Our overnight programs are a fun and welcoming way for you and your group to learn the basics of camping in some of Canada’s most beautiful natural settings. Perfect for families, newcomers, or anyone looking to try camping for the first time, these experiences are held in safe, accessible locations—with each site offering a slightly different program.
With guidance from our friendly staff, you'll gain hands-on skills like how to set up a tent, build a campfire, and cook outdoors. No experience or equipment needed, just bring your curiosity and get ready to make memories!
A great big thank you to everyone who attended our 2025 events! Learn-to Camp overnight event registrations will re-open in May 2026.
