The Wanapitei experience promotes self-reliance, cooperation and personal growth, through community living, team work and canoe trips in Canada’s wilderness. Since 1931, our highly skilled staff has introduced children and young people from around the world to adventures in beautiful and majestic northern landscapes. An experience with Wanapitei is truly an investment in life and we invite you and your family to be a part of our community.

 

Leadership is what sets Wanapitei apart.  For decades Wanapitei has been the leader in providing formative experiences to young people, teaching them the skills to be leaders in life.  Wanapitei is committed to excellence in skills, to safety and to promoting sensitivity to the environment.  Wanapitei canoe trip leaders are highly qualified professional women and men who have a passion for canoeing and for working with young people.  The minimum age for our leaders is 18; however, most are 21.  Staff-required qualifications include Ontario Recreational Canoeing Association certification (many with instructor level, Swiftwater Rescue Technician (SRT), Wilderness First Responder (WFR) and National Lifesaving Society (NLS)).  A number of staff have backgrounds in education and many have been through Wanapitei's Wilderness Training program.  We usually exceed the minimum one-to-six camper-staff ratio set by the OCA
