Based in a Log Cabin

Groups of 7-10 teenaged boys and girls set out on adventures lasting upto a week. Between trips, Hidden Valley Adventures is based in a log cabin on the summit of Ledge Mountain located on the 300-acre grounds of Hidden Valley Camp. A short hike from the camp's facilities- dining hall, health lodge, lake, etc.- the log cabin is well isolated from the sights and sounds of civilisation.

A Life-Changing Experience

Hidden Valley Adventures meets the needs of teens who want more than a summer vacation away from home with their peers. The program promises to be different, memorable, challenging and fun. Those who take part often find they return home as different people. They have benefited from working and living together with their companions and communing with the great outdoors.


"Hidden Valley Adventures was the single most trying experience of my life. It is the hardest I have ever had to push myself, the strongest I have ever had to be, and the most fun I have ever had. I wholeheartedly believe that who I am today was greatly impacted by my HVA experience; I am stronger, more confident, and more outgoing."
