General information

Canterbury Hills Camp is an Ancaster based summer camp that has been operating for over 50 years. Our unique camping experience provides opportunities for children and youth to build community, engage in experiential learning and increase environmental awareness. Camper groups are given the opportunity to plan their schedules for the week based on their personal preferences and unique ideas, making every week at camp new and exciting!

Christian Community & Discovery

Our nurturing Christian environment provides the support needed for campers to explore their own spirituality, develop their self-esteem and enrich their faith. Each session the entire camp joins together for the Eucharist celebrated in the Anglican tradition. Canterbury Hills is excited to invite campers of all faiths and religious backgrounds to participate in our camping program. LEARN MORE
