Camp Activities

Located in the beautiful California Sierra, just 30 minutes from Yosemite National Park, Camp Tuolumne Trails offers a spectacular array of activities.

All activities are designed for serious kid-style fun while helping campers develop independence, problem-solving, and teamwork skills. Campers also enhance their social skills, self-confidence and self-esteem through new skills and accomplishments. 

Tuolumne Trails is A Camp for Me -- where children with serious medical conditions can rediscover their childhood and enjoy life’s simple pleasures in a beautiful outdoor setting.

Each sponsoring organization will develop the program that best suits their participants. Of course, camper safety and fun are always the top priorities – in the pool, on the playing field, or in the arts and crafts center.

Here are some of the possible camp activities, depending on each group’s needs and interests:
