AWESOME SAILING is exactly what the Viking Sailors are in for! In addition to a lineup of thrilling in-camp activities, these campers receive hands-on sailing lessons that get them comfortable navigating the crystal-clear waters of Torch Lake. After several days of skill-building on Torch Lake, the real adventure begins as they set sail around the Apostle Islands of Lake Superior, where the wind and waves promise an unforgettable voyage.

Guided by our experienced outfitters, All Hands Sailing, Vikings will learn to sail large boats and build familiarity with navigation. This trip will include one small open water passage if crew knowledge and weather permit.

This is an entry-level sailing course, so no prior sailing experience is required. The Viking Sailors will put their new skills to the test in one of the Great Lakes’ most stunning and challenging environments. Campers will not only learn the ins and outs of sailing but also have plenty of opportunities to practice their newfound abilities, gaining confidence on the water.

When they’re not out sailing, the adventure continues back at camp with a variety of awesome activities. From Polar Bear Swim and zooming down the zip line to conquering six climbing routes on the wall, there’s always something challenging and exciting happening. Campers can also paddle across the lake in canoes, get creative with arts & crafts, and join in on a spirited game of ultimate frisbee or soccer. And along the way, they’ll form lasting friendships and make memories that will stay with them long after the sails are furled.
