A girl returns home with practical life skills for navigating her normal life, laying a meaningful foundation for adulthood.

We hike, backpack and do all our activities right from our incredible and remote camp setting. There is access to a house and phone/internet if needed.
CAMP PROGRAM INFO: These camps are run by experienced woman guides. All of us who are on staff at Inner Journeys went to camp as young girls. We had the experience of loving camp so much we pined for it the rest of the year, but it remained independent from the rest of our lives. When we founded Inner Journeys, our goal was that every girl would return home able to internally hold her camp experience and make use of it in navigating normal life, rather than it slipping away into just a memory. Inner Journeys will give your daughter more than a great experience. As long-term educators we knew we needed to go beyond the great experience the campers have and provide the important skills that will help each girl improve her relationship to her entire education and life.
