Presentation: unique travel camps
Young Explorers Club is an organisation based in Lausanne, but with activities throughout French-speaking Switzerland and beyond. Our goal: To revive the adventurous spirit of the younger generations (all children and teenagers). Our club stands out for its commitment to offering unique, enriching and unforgettable experiences in an international and bilingual (English and French) environment.
Develop skills, attitudes, and memories to lost a lifetime
The Young Explorers Club was created with a very simple mission: to foster environmental stewardship, teach responsible recreation, and provide opportunities for personal growth by facilitating impactful wilderness experiences.
Our goals for our youth program are to use the natural environment and outdoor activities to teach participants the skills and attitudes needed to lead successful lives.
Not a typical commercial camp
Through expert risk management and adventure-based programming, our team helps encourage participants to improve their self-esteem and confidence. In addition to creating lasting memories, our goal is for participants to end their adventures with a better knowledge of themselves, the world, and the environment around them.
An essential part of our program is also focused on creating a sense of community, creating friendships between participants, and sharing fun moments!
Our Summer Camps
Our camps are a unique blend of adventure, education and travel:
our story
Born out of the ambition to break down cultural and language barriers, we have evolved to become a leader in the organization of international summer camps. Our programs are designed to encourage young people to step out of their comfort zone, experience new cultures, and make international connections, forging memories and friendships that last a lifetime.
Founded in 2020, Young Explorers Club has earned a reputation as one of the most accessible organizations in the field of outdoor adventure in Switzerland. With a summer program for youngsters in French-speaking Switzerland, our first year with more than 20 young people on a mountain trip was a success. Now, after hundreds of activities and trips organized, we have created memorable, life-changing outdoor experiences for students in Switzerland and beyond.
