Options for shorter (1-3km) hikes & longer (10km) hikes, plus there's an environmental learning center. I am bringing kiddos 6 & 4 and will be tent-camping in an un-serviced site. The campground has both serviced and un-serviced sites. My main goal is to have some other kids around for short hikes/bikes and just playing at the campground. I've not been to this location before. 

Required Items to Bring:

The booking for these dates will open in a few days - so far not looking competitive. You can book on your own or get in touch with me and I can book sites together and you can reimburse me directly. 


Recommended Items to Bring:

everything needed for camping style of your choice.

Acceptable waiting list candidates will have priority. It will then be the participant's responsibility to recover funds from the replacement. If the coordinator cancels an event, participants get a refund (less any non-recoverable costs). Note that ACC National does not refund hut fees due to weather, delay, closures, or any other reasons.
