NATURE QUEST CAMP

Get ready for an unforgettable week of fun, adventure, and discovery in the great outdoors! Nature Quest Camp is one of our most-loved summer camps, and it’s no wonder why—your child will be captivated by the excitement of exploring nature, learning new skills and connecting with nature in an immersive hands-on experience.

​

Imagine noticing the delicate beauty of a wildflower, tasting tangy freshly plucked Wood Sorrel, discovering an intriguing wildlife track and wondering what creature left it, or playing thrilling hiding games among the trees. At Nature Quest Camp, these moments come to life as our skilled naturalist instructors guide campers through daily adventures filled with wonder and connection to the natural world.

​

At Earth Native Wilderness School, we believe in the incredible power of time spent in nature to spark curiosity, confidence, and joy. With engaging stories, expertly designed nature games, and thrilling explorations along Onion Creek, every day at camp is packed with excitement and discovery.

​

Camp highlights include things such as:

​

  • Exploring the hidden gems of McKinney Falls State Park

  • Observing and catching (then releasing) wildlife in their natural habitats

  • Identifying useful, edible, and medicinal plants in the wild

  • Tracking animals and deciphering the clues they leave behind

  • Learning to recognize and avoid natural hazards

  • Navigating using the sun and heightened awareness

  • Understanding essential survival skills, including what to do if lost in the woods​
