About Us
Tucked in the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina, near Asheville, Camp Wayfarer is a family-owned and operated overnight camp for boys and girls ages 5-16.
Wayfarer is intentionally smaller than most residential summer camps. Our size allows for a deeper connection with campers, helping them not only succeed in their camp experience, but in life beyond Camp Wayfarer. The Wayfarer Difference
Find your way home
Camp Wayfarer is a close-knit family consisting of campers, counselors, alumni and parents. Together our Wayfarer family is building a wonderful home away from home.
The ideal session for younger, first-time campers! This one-week session falls at the beginning of all our camp sessions. This overlap can be helpful for families in which older siblings desire a longer session. During this “starter” camp, children go to 5 activity periods specific to their age group. Campers may attend Adventure Camp for one year only, as they get a feel for life at camp without the longer stay.

This session is ideal for older, first-time campers or younger campers who want an experience longer than the one-week Adventure Camp. We love our June Camp as it is our season opener. These two weeks are always filled with a robust excitement that radiates throughout the session. Be the first one on the blob!

As a 6-week camp session, this is for those searching for a deep-dive into the camp experience. Campers are immersed in the traditions, activities, and friendships that define who we are as a camp. You will get to enjoy plenty of out-of-camp excursions, participate in some of our most special events, and spend five excitement-filled weeks of your summer building friendships to last a lifetime. Main Camp is for the avid camper who yearns for more time at camp.
