Turtle Treks
Happy Dancing Turtle Turtle Treks
Turtle Treks are overnight camping experiences for girls, giving them an opportunity to learn the basics of camping while exploring local nature and making new friends. Turtle Treks are in both our locations: the Northern Lakes Region in Pine River, MN and the Driftless Region in Trempealeau, WI.
Northern Lakes Camping Trips
Turtle Treks are an overnight camping experience for girls in 2nd - 8th grade. These camping trips provide youth with a chance to visit parks across the state and in their own backyard. Through Turtle Treks, children have the opportunity to experience the ins-and-outs of camping while building friendships and enjoying the great outdoors!
Youth learn vital camping skills, such as how to set up tents, how to make a fire (and cook over it!), and Leave No Trace responsibilities, as well as information about Minnesota's natural resources. We talk about Minnesota's land, water, plants, animals, and the night sky while kids are entertained with games, lessons, activities, songs, riddles, and stories.


A huge thank you to all of the campers that joined us on our camping adventures this year! It was amazing to watch confidence grow and friendships flourish while connecting with nature.
