Camp Kanuga

Nestled on 1,400 wooded acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, Camp Kanuga is more than just a summer destination—it is a community where children and teens discover their best selves. Since 1931, we have provided a safe, inclusive space where campers can unplug from the digital world and reconnect with nature, one another, and their faith.

Our programming is designed to foster independence and confidence through a "challenge by choice" philosophy. Whether your camper is paddling across our serene lake, navigating the high ropes course, or sharing stories around a crackling campfire, they are building the resilience and social skills that last a lifetime.

What truly sets Kanuga apart is our intentional community. We operate on a foundation of Christian hospitality, welcoming campers of all backgrounds to explore their spirituality in a relaxed, Episcopal-based environment. Our days strike a perfect chord between high-energy mountain adventure—think conquering the climbing wall or exploring winding forest trails—and intentional moments of quiet recharge and the shared warmth of our evening reflections.

At Camp Kanuga, we believe every child deserves to be seen and celebrated. Our dedicated counselors serve as mentors, guiding campers through growth-filled adventures that turn strangers into family. Give your child the gift of a mountain summer where the air is cool, the friendships are deep, and the memories are eternal.
