A “high tech” pioneering treasure hunt. Participants use GPS devices to navigate around the camp finding hidden treasure. This is a great skill that campers can continue back home. A perfect way to mix technology and the outdoors. The GPS’s are also provided by Golden Valleys Lodge.
We introduce campers to maps, map reading and how to move accurately around a set course. We have two levels of orienteering courses catering for different age groups. Orienteering maps are also provided.
Campers learn the basic skills of cooking over an open fire. Experience cooking over a campfire and getting to sample the culinary delights you can make. Golden Valleys Lodge can also provide cooking forks, Jaffle irons and mixing bowls. However, groups need to provide their own ingredients.
