It is comforting to see our child grow up

Our son has been attending summer camp (Milky Way Explorers) for three years and every time he comes back with a new sense of independence and confidence. As parents, it is comforting to see our child grow and develop in this way. Thank you for providing such a life-changing experience.
Pierre Martin , Parent

The best decision

The camp's hiking program (Milky Way Explorers) was the best decision we ever made for our daughter. She has gained valuable leadership skills, teamwork and how to take on challenges. The memories she created and the friends she met will last a lifetime. Thank you for creating a magical experience."
Mana Otaki , Parent

Why not 4 weeks dad?

I wanted to sincerely thank the organizers of the Young Explorers for another great year John and Noor and for the first time for Anna who has just turned 11. I enjoy the careful planning of activities and the excitement of my children every day to share their experiences. The counselors were amazing, a dedicated group who connected with the campers and showed their caring. My kids made friends and had the opportunity to try new things. Everything went perfectly. It was a safe and well organized place, with attentive and attentive staff. Even as parents living far away in another country, we have always been reassured that our children are safe and having fun. My kids' only complaint was "Why not 4 weeks dad?"
John Sapp , Parent

Ages & Languages

We offer this camp in 2 versions, one for 8 – 12 year olds (activities adapted to needs) and the other for 13 – 16 year olds. The participants will all be in the same chalet but some activities will take place differently. For participants between the ages of 16 and 18, we offer our innovative, youth-friendly leadership program, offering a unique blend of camp participation and a specialized program. This program is designed to foster the development of technical and soft skills through a series of activities, workshops, and hands-on leadership opportunities. We believe in bringing together an international community, which is why the languages spoken at the camp are French and English, which is what we have seen from our past experience and the huge benefit of mixing Francophones and Anglophones and learning from both groups.

What physical condition should I be in?

Since we will be participating in different outdoor activities throughout the trip, our students must have a minimum of physical fitness to participate in the camp. But in our experience, this is the case for 95% of young people between 9 and 16 years old! In the months leading up to your trip, we recommend that you participate in physical activity at least once a week if you are not already doing so. Contact us if in doubt, we will be happy to guide you to the best camp.

  • Outdoor Survival & Camping Skills
  • First Aid and Emergency Preparedness

  • Personal Values and Ethical Decision-Making

  • The ultimate goal is to help our participants become responsible and well-rounded individuals, ready to make a positive impact in the world.
What if I don't know anyone else?

Most of our students come to Young Explorers Club without knowing anyone before their trip. You’ll start making friends as soon as you arrive at the airport (and our instructors will be there to help). Once the journey is over, you won’t want to leave your new community! Most of our students remain friends long after their summer is over. We firmly believe that life is about having new experiences and making the most of every moment. However, we also recognize that the most meaningful experiences often require stepping out of our comfort zones and venturing away from familiar surroundings. When we do this, we find ourselves in unfamiliar and challenging environments, which forces us to fully engage with our surroundings and truly live in the moment. These new places and situations often bring new perspectives and can inspire us to continue seeking out new experiences that push us to grow and broaden our horizons.

What are the other students like?

The teenagers who come to the Young Explorers Club are kind, welcoming, eager to learn and come from all over Switzerland, France, USA and elsewhere. Our groups are full of positive young adults who will work well with each other. Young Explorers Club places a strong emphasis on group dynamics and creating a supportive social environment, and our students reflect this.

Safety: Is this camp safe?

During each activity, all preventive safety measures are in place and strictly followed. To see all our safety measures and protocols, please visit our dedicated page: SECURITY & TEAM.

We believe in human-to-human interaction: write to us via our contact methods (https://youngexplorersclub.ch/contact/) and schedule a call or meeting with one of our employees. We will be happy to answer any doubts or questions you may have. Or find the list of all frequently asked questions on FAQs.
