It’s everything you’d expect from a California summer camp: Sun, fun and a full range of activities to delight your kids. Summer camp at Coppercreek is anything but ordinary. Kids 8 to 15 get treated to the basics: horses, art, swimming and campfires (with s’mores, stories and songs!). But Coppercreek offers more than other California riding camps or regular kids’ summer camps: mountain biking, overnight backpacking trips – and more!

EVERY DAY'S A NEW ADVENTURE!

At Coppercreek, some activities (backpack trips and high challenge courses) run early in each session; and riding lessons have set schedules. But, unlike other kids’ horse camps, campers can pursue activities they enjoy. Special events (like carnivals, overnights or the Great Coppercreek Boat Races) are built into every session. No two sessions are alike, so extended-stay campers always have something new to enjoy.

Unlike regular horseback riding camps, Coppercreek’s youth and teen horse enthusiasts can build their mornings around riding lessons, then choose from a full menu of hourly activities the rest of the day. Aside from horse camp offerings, some choices include:

WAKEBOARDING AND WATER SPORTS
It wouldn’t be a CA watersports camp without waterskiing! Water ski, hydro-slide or wakeboard behind our competition ski boats, equipped with booms, to help beginners learn the basics, and skylons for advanced skiers and boarders to learn tricks. Visit the pool, ponds for swimming and boating or the creek flowing through camp.

KAYAKING: Coppercreek’s popular CA kayaking camp experience: Learn the basics in our pool, then further your skills in the ponds. Competent kayakers take trips down Feather River.

CLIMBING AND HIGH CHALLENGE COURSE:
Our climbers experience everything you’d find at the best CA climbing camps. Grapple your way up our climbing wall, or try your hand climbing real rock at local hotspots. Or explore our 15-element high challenge course, complete with 2 zip lines!

Campers can also choose performing arts, archery, pottery, skateboarding, golf and more!
