Yesterday’s Camp in Today’s World

Una Tierra weeks are easily our most popular. These all-ages weeks are designed so families can send all their children to Camp at the same time. Campers are split into cabins based on age group and enjoy age-appropriate programs, but many activities also take place together. Una Tierra weeks offer all campers a classic Camp adventure. What’s not to love?

Triple A is our only week just for High Schoolers. It’s everything you might want in a week of Camp. Late nights and early mornings mean we can pack in as many adventures as possible. Stargazing, campfires, and the chance to connect with new friends and old are sure to make for a week you won’t forget! Grab your friends and register now-this week will fill up quickly!

Our “Me and You” Mini-Week is designed for a parent, grandparent, or other significant adult to accompany one or more children 1st-4th grade. Kids and adults will stay together, share daily camp life and participate in the many activities led by Fowler’s summer staff. This is a great way to create new and lasting memories. The cost is $200 per person.

This all-girls trip will be a true wilderness adventure! This week-long trip will take the group out-of-camp and into the wilderness for four nights and five days. The two female wilderness guides will lead the group on a paddling and hiking adventure that emphasizes time together in the wilderness -- swimming, cooking, stargazing-- more than completing an intense physical challenge. If there's any trip that will make your camper fall in love with the wilderness, this is it!

Paths and Paddles are some of our most popular trips! You will embark on a 5 day trip: 2.5 days canoeing and 2.5 days backpacking, which is a wonderful way to experience the joys and challenges of both of these activities. You’ll paddle through rivers and lakes before trading your paddles for boots to try your hand at hiking some of the Adirondack’s most beautiful trails. This is a great introductory trip for any first time wilderness campers!

Exclusively for campers coming out of fifth or sixth grade, ADK Wild is the perfect way to introduce young people to the wilderness and keep them coming back. You will base out of the Wilderness Area at Camp Fowler, sleeping in log lean tos, cooking all your own food, and building tons of campfires. You’ll spend your days canoeing, exploring, and learning essential wilderness skills. You’ll end your week with an awesome camping overnight!

No sailing experience is necessary for this trip because we’ll teach you everything you need to know! You’ll base out of the Wilderness Area where you’ll sleep in one of Fowler’s log lean tos and cook most of your own food. You’ll spend your days learning and testing your sailing skills on Sacandaga Lake, maybe even sailing across the lake for an overnight adventure. Anchors aweigh! This year, we have one sailing week for Middle Schoolers and one for High Schoolers.

Start off your summer with a backpacking adventure! Head up to the High Peaks Wilderness Area while the days are long and the mountaintops are waiting. You’ll spend five days backpacking and climbing mountains in the High Peaks Region of the Adirondacks, and you’ll quickly bond with your small community of adventurers. Due to group size restrictions in the High Peaks Wilderness Area, this trip is limited to just six campers.

This two-week backpacking trip is for High Schoolers who have experience backpacking and are interested in trying something challenging and different. You’ll hike the entire length of the Northville-Placid Trail (120 miles) that runs all the way from Northville to Lake Placid in 12 days, an awesome accomplishment, bonding as a group and exploring the beautiful Adirondacks! Price: $1,400 (T1), $1,100 (T2), $1,000 (T3). Group size limited to 6 campers.

This is a great introductory week for campers who want to experience the fun and beauty of a backpacking trip. You’ll carry everything you need on your back, which will allow you to travel by foot to some of the most beautiful and remote corners of the Adirondacks. You’ll spend your days walking with a tight-knit group of friends and you’ll spend your evenings swimming in rivers and lakes and cozying up around a campfire. It doesn’t get better!
