Welcome to Camp Hurontario – celebrating 79 years in camping!
For over seventy summers, Camp Hurontario’s small group philosophy has built lasting friendships, self-confidence and strong personal skills, in a unique non-competitive outdoor environment.
Camp Hurontario’s spectacular location in the Thirty Thousand Islands of Georgian Bay, two hours north of Toronto, offers the ideal setting for a wide range of outdoor summer activities, including canoeing, kayaking, sailing, windsurfing, swimming, rock climbing, ropes, archery, fishing, biology and arts.
Our philosophy is designed around growth and development, so that there is always a new and appropriate challenge at each age level. Our small groups and non-competitive atmosphere provides an opportunity for a more flexible approach to learning than that of a school setting. Boys from all over the world are able to develop strong personal skills, great friendships and a wonderful sense of community.
Camp Hurontario offers a variety of sessions from 7 days to three and a half weeks, for boys aged 5 through 16. Sessions are tailored for different age ranges and levels of experience. Camp sessions begin at the end of June. Please refer to our dates and rates for more information.
Please call or email the camp office to schedule an info session with Dave Freel, our Managing Director. Get answers to any questions about Camp Hurontario that you (and your camper) may have.

2025 Testimonials
“The best experience my son has ever had!”
– Rob, 2025
“Eli attended Camp Hurontario last year for 2 weeks and came for a month this year. He absolutely loved his canoe trip and is already planning which one he wants to do next year…and the year after that…and the year after that. You have a Hurontario camper for life! Eli has even decided to learn to play the guitar so that he can help lead the singalongs.”
– Leslie, 2025
“Warren came back so very happy with a stream of stories that have not stopped yet. What a wonderful first camp experience in a very special location. Please thank all of his counsellors for making camp so fun and positive. The first thing Warren said when I saw him was “I am going back next year!”.
– Anna, 2025
“This is one of the best things that a parent could possibly wish for – that their children would have a few very special places that they can call “home”, to truly feel at home in these special places, and to look forward to being back the moment they leave! This makes us the happiest every summer when we pick up the boys from camp, and this summer has been their “absolute best one yet”.
– Emily, 2025

The Hood River 2025
After travelling by float plane from Yellowknife, our trippers landed on the Hood River to embark on their 3 week adventure in the land of the midnight sun.
Passing arctic ice, musk oxen, and caribou, our trippers paddled through whitewater rapids to finally reach the astounding Wilberforce Falls. They caught fish, ate well, challenged themselves, and ended the trip as a great group of friends at Bathurst Inlet.
Thanks to our amazing guides, counsellors Doug and Dylan, and to the trippers themselves, the trip was a huge success.
Information on the Hood River Trip for 2026 is coming soon!
