SWIFTS Nature Camp 2025 - Week 7 - Redwoods (Monday, Aug 4-SATURDAY, Aug 9 — Overnight Monday-Saturday)

About the activity:

Get ready for an extraordinary adventure! Walk amongst the ancients as we immerse ourselves within some of the oldest Redwood forests along the northern California coast. We’ll travel by bus down to Jedidiah Smith State Park and stay at an Outdoor School site right in the heart of the thick Redwood forest where Banana Slugs, Marbled Murrelets, and other wildlife call these huge, majestic trees home.

Discover the ecology of the area by hiking amongst these ancient giants, feeling the fog they create, and turning over logs to see what secrets lie beneath. Speak with local ranger to learn about the struggle to save these trees and the efforts being made to protect them for generations to come. We’ll hike, tide pool, swim and connect ourselves to this unique place and each other. Explore new horizons, uncover hidden wonders, and immerse yourself in a week filled with excitement, curiosity, and fun. Discover, learn, and create memories that will last a lifetime as you dive into this one-of-a-kind experience!
