Our Locations

Our camps travel through some of the most beautiful climbing terrain in the Northeast. Depending on the program, we climb in Acadia National Park, Clifton, North-West Maine, and New Hampshire, staying in established campgrounds and rotating locations to match objectives, conditions, and experience level.

Traveling from Afar?

For campers who choose to fly or take a bus to camp, we offer pickup and drop off in Bangor, ME the day before and after camp for an additional $75.00 per pick up or drop off.

Unaccompanied minor services from the airline or bus service are required for campers age 7–12 and optional for ages 13–18. Please prepay for this service and arrange it in advance. Please use the name Nathan Lavoy as the person who will arrange pickup for your child.

To simplify departures and avoid problems at the airport, please complete all necessary airline forms before your child’s arrival at camp.

Campers are met at the terminal by camp personnel wearing Acadia Mountain Guides apparel and are escorted to our vehicle for the trip to camp. These participants will either stay with staff at our Bangor base or stay in a nearby campsite with leaders.

Campers should carry a list of phone numbers, including Acadia Mountain Guides numbers (listed in this packet), and a small amount of travel money. We will telephone you when your son/daughter arrives.

Round trip tickets, excess money, and unaccompanied minor forms will be collected and placed in the camp office until departure.

Campers arriving by plane or bus should pack a change of clothes, a rain jacket, and a toothbrush in a backpack to carry on the plane or bus in case luggage arrives late. Please be sure to label your child’s clothing and gear.

We try to accommodate all pick up requests outside of our normal time frames, but with some trips this is not feasible due to the traveling nature of our camps.
