Get ready to branch out and explore the wonderful world of trees! In Tree Huggers, campers will spend the week discovering the magic of our local forests and learning how the trees of the San Juan Mountains help keep our planet healthy and happy.
Each day is packed with hands-on adventures and creative fun; we’ll identify native trees, create beautiful tree-inspired art projects, and even plant real trees for Seas of Trees reforestation initiative!
Of course, no Telluride Academy week would be complete without outdoor action. Campers will enjoy hiking beneath shady canopies, splashing around on SUP boards, and scaling the rocks like mountain squirrels; all while building friendships and a deeper connection to the natural world.
By week’s end, our young environmentalists will have a new appreciation for the forests that surround us and the confidence to keep growing like the mighty trees they’ve come to love!
A detailed daily itinerary will be provided to you on the Monday morning of the program.

Daily: 9:00 am – 4:45 pm
