Camp Wilderness is all about getting back-to-basics on a good old fashioned summer camp adventure… whether you’re hoping to re-wild your kids, or get the whole family back outdoors there’s a wilderness escape for everyone at Camp Wilderness.
Once upon a time, nestled deep within the enchanting wilderness, there stood a camp like no other – Camp Wilderness. It was a place where young adventurers embarked on thrilling journeys, immersing themselves in the wonders of nature and honing their bushcraft skills.
Camp Wilderness is a rite of passage, where children transform into young adventurers, ready to face any challenge that comes their way. It is a place where they discover their true potential, nurture their love for nature, and embrace the spirit of exploration.
At Camp Wilderness we take pride in delivering kids holiday camps that offer a break from the plugged-in world and re-wild them in the wilderness. We have designed 8 different holiday camp types for children of all abilities – and families too! Our camps range from traditional camping in bell tents to wooden eco pods in the woodland all the way to brick and mortar accommodation in the heart of natural wonders.
A child can join any of our summer camps that they are age-eligible for but also have the option to progress through different camps while building on previous skills and taking their adventure to the next levels.

My daughter has been to camp 2 years running and each time has marched out to the forest with the biggest grin on her face and so many exciting tales to tell.
My son absolutely loved the experience and had nothing bad to say whatsoever! He is raving about it to anyone who will listen and will definitely be back next year.
For 3 days we completely took ourselves off grid into the wilderness. It was unreservedly the best thing we’ve done. We walked, talked, learnt new skills, met new friends and escaped the social pressures of the world we live in.
Special thanks for making my little boy’s absolute highlight of his life by sharing the legend that is Ed Stafford. Thank you for making my little boy’s weekend unforgettable.
