Camp Information

Camp Odyssey in Kimberley is based out of Rotary Park (splash park), using the Kimberley Curling Rink indoor space if we encounter inclement weather. Days will be spent in the Kimberley Nature Park, Kimberley Community Garden, and along Rails to Trails. Indoor washroom facilities may not be available every day and campers will learn how to use bush bathrooms.

Happy Hikers, ages 7-12
This group is perfect for keen walkers who want to explore a little further away from “home base”. This group can expect to walk approx. 4-6 km each day, with plenty of stops for exploring and activities.  

Nearby Naturalists, ages 5-8
This group will stay closer to “home base”, spending less time walking and more time exploring and getting crafty.
