About Camp du Nord

General Information

Gathering Spaces

Outdoor Activity Center

The Outdoor Activity Center offers a variety of activities and programs to draw attention to the natural beauty around camp. Set out on adventurous hikes and paddles, brush up on your wilderness skills and knowledge, try some delicious trail food, support our du Green efforts, and more! The Outdoor Activity Center can also help you arrange a cookout or overnight with your family.

Family Art Center

The Family Art Center provides opportunities to craft inside and out. We offer a variety of craft classes and activities for all ages throughout the week, offer open art, and have opportunities to take to-go art kits back to your cabins. Some classes charge a small additional fee for materials. Try your hand at painting, inkle weaving, making friendship bracelets, zen doodles, and more.
