Our Program

At Berkshire Trails Camp, our program is diverse, exciting and designed to keep all of our campers engaged well into their teens. Our emphasis is to provide excellent, hands-on instruction and meaningful opportunities to enable campers to challenge themselves.

Cabin life is at the center of the Berkshire Trails experience. Living together gives campers the opportunity to build close friendships, share experiences, support one another, and feel a true sense of belonging. Over the course of the summer, a cabin becomes much more than a place to sleep. It becomes a community. Campers spend meaningful parts of each day with their cabin group, including meals, camp gatherings, and other shared moments. These everyday experiences help create strong bonds between campers and counselors and often lead to friendships that continue long after the summer ends.
