Camp du Nord
Camp du Nord strives to strengthen families by providing opportunities for individual and family growth, support spiritual development, and enhance environmental awareness in a wilderness setting.
Founded in 1961, Camp du Nord is a family destination located deep in Minnesota's north woods. Situated on the edge of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, du Nord provides access to miles of hiking and skiing trails, as well as family and group programming throughout the year. Lodging ranges from tent sites to gorgeous cabins with full kitchens and bathrooms, perfect for a seasoned participant family or a first-time camping experience.
