Lech-Lecha Adventure Camp takes place in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley, just 1 hour from DC.
Adventure Camp gives Jewish teens a safe, guided two-week experience of canoeing, backpacking, and rock climbing in the Shenandoah Valley, balanced with meaningful Shabbat rest in wilderness cabins and hostels—helping them grow in confidence, connection, and Jewish identity.
After each Shabbat at base camp, campers set out in small groups for a week of immersive wilderness adventures, camping under the stars and exploring breathtaking landscapes. At the end of the week, everyone returns to home base to reconnect, share stories, and recharge in a comfortable setting before the next journey begins.
