Camp Opemikon, Scouts Canada

Since 1938, Camp Opemikon has served the camping needs of more than half a million members of the Scouting family. The camp is owned and operated by Scouts Canada, Voyageur Council, and is one of the finest residential Scout Camps in Canada. Campers from other parts of Canada and around the world are welcome.

From September to June, Scout Groups and Youth Organizations use Opemikon for their Outdoor Adventure programming. Camp Opemikon's Summer program runs from July to August, and focuses on Leadership and Outdoor Adventures. We welcome all boys and girls aged 7 to 16, both from outside Scouting and inside Scouting.

This camp is located on the southern tip of the Canadian Shield on Christie Lake, 100 km southwest of Ottawa. This idyllic camp on more than 200 acres of rugged terrain, nestled among three pristine lakes, provides the perfect Scouting adventure away from busy roads and crowded cities. A large, modern kitchen and dining hall provides campers with wholesome, nutritious meals in a pleasant atmosphere.
