The Adirondacks afford Point O'Pines with a spectacular setting and plentiful opportunity for adventures in the wilderness. Our Wilderness, Adventure and Discovery, or “WAD,” program provides our campers with endless opportunities to be inspired by our gorgeous natural surroundings.

Our farm, with 500 acres of breathtaking mountain, woods and fields, is an ideal setting for an introduction to the outdoors. Our youngest campers have weekly wilderness visits where they are introduced to outdoor living skills. Younger campers spend at least one night camping out at our farm, where they enjoy outdoor cooking, telling campfire stories and mastering the art of making s'mores.

The farm is also home to our “challenge course” where we promote group spirit and reliance upon others. Our challenge course features low elements supervised by highly trained staff. Our 5th and 6th grade campers participate in weekly challenge activities that build self-confidence.

Older campers can participate in regular hiking and camping trips throughout the Adirondacks. From day hikes and canoe trips to three-night backcountry camping expeditions, our campers experience the beauty and wonder of the Adirondack Park.
