Close to both Mumbai and Pune, Camp Kamshet is the perfect beginning for 9–11 year olds stepping into the world of outdoor adventure. Set by a serene lakeside and surrounded by the Western Ghats, this campus offers the perfect mix of comfort and challenge. Children stay in dorms and tents, experience a caring camp environment, and return with a greater sense of confidence and independence. The experience helps children take their first steps into the outdoors, make new friends, and discover more about themselves in a natural setting.
Participants will get to try their hand at the basics of kayaking, go hiking in the surrounding hills, and scramble over rocks in beginner bouldering sessions. Mornings are focused on outdoor skills, while afternoons are filled with camp games, group reflections and fun. The program is designed to build courage, curiosity and cooperation.

5PM Milk, tea and snacks to up the energy levels
5:30PM Other cool time activities, de-briefing, group sharing sessions or personal reflection
7:30PM Soup and dinner cap off a power packed day
9PM Lights off, get into sleeping bags and slip into a golden slumber
Children stay in shared dorm-style accommodation, separate spaces for boys and girls. Washrooms are built-up, with running hot water and all essential facilities. It’s not a resort; and that’s the point. Stepping out of their comfort zone helps children break boundaries, become more independent, and enjoy the joy of shared living.

Being well fed and hydrated is crucial to staying energised for the action-packed days. A fully functional kitchen on camp dishes up fresh, wholesome and nutritious food for every meal. Water, soup or juice provided during hydration breaks through the day. Our instructors take care of the rest. They're all certified outdoor experts who go through extensive training and assessment before working with us. For the comfort and special needs of girls, there is a female instructor assigned to each activity group. A doctor is also present on camp at all times to attend to medical needs.
The group departs from Mumbai in AC buses with push-back seats at 6:00am. We reach the camp in time for breakfast. On the way back home, the bus reaches the assembly point by 10:00pm. Outstation participants need to fly into Pune on the morning of the departure date.
We recommend a little jogging, stretching and exercise a few weeks before the departure to gain the flexibility and agility needed to truly enjoy the experience. Do this wearing the shoes you want to carry for the program—it'll help break into them.
