activities / outdoor activities

Each camper chooses four activities called Chugim to participate in each day while at camp. Choose the ones you love or try something new! At Herzl Camp, we specialize in creative programming so there’s always a twist and it’s always unique!

Choose one of the categories above for complete activity descriptions

Israeli Scouts

A Herzl Camp Classic! Have you ever wanted to learn more about Israeli culture? In this chug, you will have the opportunity to work with Herzl’s own Israeli scouts. Activities will include team building, outdoor art projects and cooking the best pita you have ever had!

Rock Climbing & Challenge Course

Challenge yourself to the MAX! Half of your time will be spent focusing on your rock climbing skills. Challenge yourself by ringing the bell at the top of our State-of-the-Art Rock Climbing Wall! The Herzl Camp Rock Wall offers five different paths, from beginning to advanced. Other days will be spent swinging across the NITRO crossing, getting across the MOHAWK WALK and learning how to work as a team during innovative challenge activities.

Wilderness Survival and Outdoor Cooking

Learn to build a fire and tame the wilderness with the bare essentials! Camouflage yourself and see if your friends can find you. Learn how to cook tasty meals outside. By the end of the session, the outdoors will become your best friend.
