Viking Camp invites young warriors to step out of the modern world and into the thrill, grit, and heart of the Viking Age. This isn’t simply a day at camp—it’s an immersive journey into Norse life, where every activity tests the strength, cleverness, and spirit of a true Viking through hands-on challenges and ancient skills passed down through time.
⚒️The Day’s Legendary Trials:
- Master the art of the strike with safe, weighted foam axe-throwing.
- Embark on a high-stakes treasure quest using logic, landmark recognition, and ancient Norse clues to find buried “wealth.”
- Learn authentic battle tactics and formations led by professional Viking reenactors. Experience a live demonstration of how the Great Heathen Army held the line.
- Discover the “Maker” side of Norse life as you practice the skills of the forge, wood carving, and Nordic knots.
- And Much More.
