2021 SUMMER CAMP REGISTRATION NOW AVAILABLE
UNLOCK YOUR SUMMER ADVENTURE!
Our nature-oriented small group camp programs consist of a variety of Adventures that are safe, fun and provide educational programs including cultural activities, unique physical challenges, games and lots of social activities.
Our camps allow children to step out of their comfort zone and into the iconic New-Brunswick Wilderness to learn about themselves in relation to what our natural world has to offer and provides them with the opportunity to experience “DIGITAL DETOX”
Our programs include daily supervised paddling skills with kayaks, canoes & paddle boards, playground, inside & outside rock climbing, arts and crafts, cultural activities, hikes, swimming & more.
WHAT MAKES US UNIQUE?
Research indicates that children who take time to disconnect from devices and connect with nature and within themselves experience powerful and permanent changes in their overall well-being. Fortunately, our highly inclusive and culturally oriented camps give children the opportunity to meet new friends who are also looking to build their relationship with nature and learning about the outdoors. Children attending our camps will be surrounded with highly motivated outdoor facilitators that help campers enhance their knowledge of the outdoors and inspire their curiosities about nature in a small group.

The Stonehammer Story- explore a billion years of Earth history!
Welcome to Stonehammer UNESCO Global Geopark!
We love Sparking Curiosity about the Earth!
With a landscape created by the collision of continents, the closing and opening of oceans, volcanoes, earthquakes, ice ages and climate change, Stonehammer UNESCO Global Geopark includes geological stories from the late precambrian time a billion years ago to the most recent Ice Age, and almost everything in between.
As North America’s first geopark, Stonehammer is about geology, but it is also about the people, society and culture. You can hike, kayak, rock climb, zip, eat and tour… you’ll have fun every step of the way!
What is a Geopark?
A Geopark is an area recognized by UNESCO to have exceptional geological heritage. This simply means that the area has a natural landscape that is good for education, has a significant scientific value, is particularly rare or it is simply beautiful to look at.
Geoparks aren’t just about geology though, they also take in locations with interesting archaeology, wildlife and habitats, history, folklore and culture, all of which are intricately linked with the underlying geology.
