About Pythian youth camp
Pythian Youth Camp: A Historic Wilderness Experience
Nestled in the heart of Sequoia National Forest, Pythian Youth Camp is a historic wilderness camp that has been providing unforgettable experiences for children and young adults since 1946. With 23 structures spread across a sprawling 19-acre parcel of land, this camp offers an unparalleled opportunity to connect with nature and create lifelong memories.
At Pythian Youth Camp, we believe that every child deserves the chance to explore the great outdoors and learn valuable life skills in a safe and supportive environment. That's why we offer a wide range of programs designed to meet the needs of children from all walks of life.
Our summer camps are open to children aged 7-17 and offer a variety of activities including hiking, swimming, archery, arts & crafts, team-building exercises, and more. Our experienced counselors are dedicated to creating an inclusive atmosphere where every child feels welcome and valued.
In addition to our summer camps, we also offer year-round programs for schools and other organizations. These programs are tailored to meet specific educational goals while still providing plenty of opportunities for outdoor exploration and adventure.
One thing that sets Pythian Youth Camp apart from other wilderness camps is our commitment to sustainability. We believe that it's important to protect the natural beauty around us so future generations can enjoy it as well. That's why we use eco-friendly practices whenever possible - from composting food waste to using solar power for electricity.
