Nature Camps
Albion Hills Field Centre has been delivering overnight education and recreation programs for 60 years, teaching children from the Greater Toronto Area about nature, adventure, leadership, and teamwork.
Every day, all year round, we meet children who are sleeping away from home for the first time, or trying a new outdoor activity, and taking the first steps towards transforming into the person they will become.
As guides on our journey, our staff are trained in child development and are experienced in making the outdoors a safe and welcoming space for every child, student, or camper who comes through our doors.
Albion Hills’ small-scale day or overnight adventure camps allow for individual attention from our experienced camp counselors and outdoor education specialists.

Comfortable and clean indoor accommodations, delicious, healthy, kid-friendly food, and lots of time on the trails will help your child build confidence and independence, and create lifelong memories.
Our Parent Handbook for overnight camps provides more information on what to pack, camp schedules, the camp code of conduct, and all the other ABC’s of camp.
