Summer Camp Ardèche, France
Day 1 at Camp!
Wow, what a great first day here in our Ardèche Village Camps!
A slightly chilly morning filled with excitement, a tasty breakfast & a crazy amount of camp fun! Of course, the smiles of each camper grew when we told them that they would be spending the day kayaking, canyoning, climbing & caving!
Advanced Adventure left camp early in the morning to spend a whole day of canyoning & abseiling through the canyon! The route we took the campers through had beautiful views, cliff jumps & awesome rocks to scramble through! We had so much fun splashing through the rapids & waterfalls, we just couldn't get enough!
Boats & paddles at the ready, each of the campers jumped in the water for their first day on the water! They spent the action-filled activity kayaking, swimming, swinging from trees & cliff jumping - we all had so much fun on the water! There is never a better way to spend a hot summers day!
The climbers headed to a hidden cave overlooking the river to start with some climbing. Some of the campers had never climbed or abseiled before, so it was just amazing to see them do this for the first time! The walls were challenging, but everybody did their very best & all of the counselors are super proud!
Now, the cave that everybody just hasn't stopped talking about! The campers finally got to explore the secret chamber with our counselors - it was incredible! We found new routes in the cave & everybody was so intrigued by the history & fossils found. We can't wait until our next visit to the secret chamber! (Not to mention the amazing ice cream after scrambling through the tight tunnels)!
Ahh, what a day! We all arrived back at camp for a delicious dinner made by our amazing chef, Spider! Desert & camp games to follow. We just love to see the campers making new friends from all over the world & getting to explore to Ardèche with us!
