Tripping

Kandalore tripping, it’s an adventure. A chance to stretch yourself in the Canadian wilderness, to find out who you are and what you can do.

A chance to learn new skills, to overcome challenges, to connect with nature in new ways.

A chance to have fun together, to make lifelong friends.

“When I was on trip for the first time, I was very surprised just in the overall atmosphere of trip. But, after that, I just learned to love it and it was just a great experience after learning that you can survive in the wilderness after living not anywhere near that kind of thing. Just, it’s amazing.” – Jamie, age 14

Our campers start canoe tripping in their first year at camp, and grow in skills as the years pass.

Our youngest campers go on an overnight trip to the island in our lake. Campers who are 10 and 11 take a two-day canoe trip through the lakes near Kandalore or in Algonquin Park. Campers who are 12 or 13 do a three-night trip on rivers with moving water. Campers who are 14 to 16 take five to twelve day trips on rivers with moving water. In their 16th year, campers can choose to do the Explorer program, an extensive wilderness canoe trip.

Whatever the age or distance, canoe trips are carefully planned and led by trained and experienced staff members. Canoe trips build confidence, teamwork and leadership skills. They build lifelong friendships. They change lives.

You learn who you are and what you can do

You learn what matters and what doesn’t matter.

Camp Kandalore recognizes that its work takes place on traditional, ancestral land that has been inhabited by Indigenous people for thousands of years. We are located on Treaty 20 territory, known as the Williams Treaties First Nations: Curve Lake, Rama, Hiawatha, Alderville, Scugog Island, Beausoleil and Georgina Island First Nations.

Kandalore canoe trips also travel through many traditional Indigenous territories across the provinces, predominantly through Treaty 9, Nishnawbe Aski Nation.

We respect their past, present, and future generations, the land, and their traditions. We are grateful for the opportunity to gather, learn, and travel on these lands and waterways.
