Camp Pathfinder offers the finest wilderness summer camp experience to 100 boys, ages 7 - 16. Located on Pathfinder Island, Source Lake in world-famous Algonquin Provincial Park.

Pathfinder is all about exciting outdoor sports and canoe trips, a boy's ideal summer adventure. A Pathfinder summer also means growing independence, character, values, abilities, and friendships for life.

Boys attend Pathfinder from the U.S., Canada, Europe and South America. Our campers hail from 14 U.S. states, 4 Canadian provinces, and 6 overseas countries.

Since 1914, Pathfinder has provided a renowned canoe tripping program, and a rich in-camp program of paddling, nature lore / ecology, swimming, athletics, arts, and ropes-challenge. Traditions are many at Pathfinder, including everything from games to awards, to events celebrating our long history of fellowship. Pathfinder puts the emphasis on friendships and community, on simple-living in a low-technology setting and on a boy's personal connection to the natural world.

At Pathfinder, an expert, highly trained staff of 70 counselors and guides provide the crucial 1:2 ratio that ensures individual attention for every boy. Owners Glenn & Heidi Arthurs and Mike & Leslie Sladden personally steward Camp's leadership tradition.

Traditional Pathfinder sessions are 2 weeks,  3 1/2 weeks or 7 weeks during July and August. For new boys, ages 7 - 8, there is a special one-week "Mic Mac" program offered twice each summer. For boys 9-12 there are special first-timers' 2-week sessions.
