Welcome to Wildwood
Where Kids Explore Nature and Find Themselves
Wildwood is a multidimensional summer program for young people ages 9 to 17 focusing on active exploration of the natural world. Owned and operated by Mass Audubon, Wildwood is a place where friendships are formed and respect for the environment is forged. Campers arrive curious about nature and leave committed to the preservation of our natural resources.
One thing we’ve learned from our 50-year history as a premier, nature-oriented camp is that kids don’t want an “educational” summer. They want to swim and play and hear stories told around a campfire. At Wildwood, we do all that and much, much more. We venture into the great outdoors, examine stars and planets, plot courses and build shelters, catch fish, track animals, plant seeds, and paint pictures.
Along the way, our campers learn. They’ll surprise you one day by identifying a species of tree, or recognizing a bird by its song, or even by showing you how to handle a kayak with ease. But the most important things they’ll learn are that they possess important skills, can master challenges, and how over time, they have the power to make a difference.
