Lunch and Tour of Camp Yowochas

Camp Yowochas is a year round outdoor education centre and summer camp. From September to June we offer both day and overnight bookings for field trips, corporate events, holiday parties, etc.   Camp Yowochas has many areas throughout our property that they use during the course of the year: The campfire circle, Picnic Shelter, Arts & Crafts Hall, Fireside Lounge, Dry Sauna, Natural Sauna, Challenge Course Area and the Retreat Cabin.  The camp is located on the north shore of Wabamun Lake.

Since 1916, YWCA Edmonton’s Camp Yowochas has provided highly regarded outdoor education and camp programming to thousands of youths every year. At Camp Yowochas, our philosophy is that every child should have the opportunity to explore nature and develop skills for life-long personal growth.

The name Yowocohas (pronounced you-woke-us) was created by a child camper and it made up of the first two letters of the words Young Women’s Christian Association.
