Highlands Nature Camps
Highlands Center Nature Camps are a meaningful way for children of all ages to spend time immersed in nature discovering the wonders of the Central Highlands. From the animals to plants to fungi and everything in between, our hope is to inspire children to develop a deeper sense of place and understanding of the natural world around them.

Summer Nature Camp
25 Years of Wonder: Past, Present, Wild
This summer we celebrate 25 years of Nature Camp with a theme grounded in curiosity, connection, and discovery. Each week invites campers to explore the natural world through time: learning from the past, engaging deeply with the present, and imagining a future shaped by thoughtful care for the land.
Through time on the trail, nature-based lessons, and environmental science, campers explore water, plants, animals, and ecosystems while building confidence, friendships, and a true sense of belonging. Along the way they begin to see themselves as part of nature’s story, growing into curious learners and wise caretakers of the land.
Whether it’s a camper’s first summer or one of many, this season honors 25 years of wonder while looking ahead to the generations of nature stewards still to come.
