Overview

This summer, we welcome kids to our base at Lake Tsivlou, offering them unique and exciting experiences. The Summer Youth Camp at Lake Tsivlou by The North Face is a multi-day activity program designed for adventurous children who love nature and action!

The program aims to help our campers develop important values such as independence, teamwork, solidarity, and respect for the environment. These values are fostered through experiential team-building games, and outdoor activities.

At night, we have the chance to gaze at the starry sky. We gather together to share stories and experiences, strengthening the bonds of friendship. We play games and have lots of fun!
