Langskib Wilderness Experience
Wilderness canoeing adventures for boys
Langskib offers wilderness canoeing adventures from our remote Canadian island base camp with an emphasis on personal growth, leadership development, and expedition skills. We believe that our canoe trips are an excellent metaphor for life's journey and represent an important rite of passage into adulthood. While the experience is challenging, it is more about learning from the land and each other, than conquering one mountain or river. Whether it is their first time away from home or they are seasoned wilderness adventurers, participants can find the experience that is just right for them. Teeth to the Wind!
Sessions include 2, 3-1/2, and 7 week programs for young men ages 10 to 17 in the Temagami region of Ontario.

Camp Wendigo
Residential boys' summer camp
Wendigo is essentially a canoe-tripping outpost offering supervised canoe trips throughout Algonquin Park's 3000 square miles of protected wilderness. The boys are involved in every facet of a canoe-trip. They learn how to pack out a trip, both food and equipment. They learn the value of efficiency and ingenuity in setting up camp and in outdoor cooking.
Wendigo's rigorous program helps older boys, aged 12-16, to develop their canoe-tripping skills. Trips are limited to 7 campers at one time. 13-day, 3 ?-week, and 7 week sessions are available.
