Our Philosophy
Adventure Camp LA is rooted in experiential education — the belief that children learn best through direct interaction with the natural world.
Through hiking, nature-based projects, cooperative games, and creative exploration, children develop:
Confidence
Social awareness
Problem-solving skills
A deeper connection to the outdoors
Our approach blends structured enrichment with the freedom of outdoor discovery, creating an environment that is both grounding and engaging.
“On walks with my daughter she tells me what plants are edible and has a new found sense of adventure!”
-Stephanie Chastan, Mayanaiya Botanicals
“Adventure Camp is a magical place for children to play and grow”
-Kylie Gilbert - Nature Based Education Consultant
“Getting out in nature is so important for us all, especially living in a busy city. Having carved out this time for my son to get dirty, take guided and educated risks, push himself outside his comfort level, has been deeply educational and provided scaffolding for life long lessons and growth. We can’t say enough great things about Adventure Camp!”
