Imagine this, a summer camp designed exclusively for adults. This is an opportunity you simply can't afford to miss!

Are you ready for a unique summer camp experience, designed exclusively for adults? Sierra Nevada Journeys has just the thing! This perfect unwinding weekend awaits you, with no responsibilities other than showing up with your friends. Join us from August 15 - 17, 2025, for a weekend in the mountains, free from all of those responsibilities. Weekend fun begins Friday at 4 pm and ends Sunday at 1 pm.

We are planning a unique weekend filled with all the nostalgia and bliss you experienced as a child at summer camp. It will be an action-packed weekend of fun, activities, and social time. Alternatively, you could simply take an afternoon nap in a lawn chair under the famous giant yellow pine trees of Plumas National Forest.

The Sierra Nevada Journeys Outdoor Education Camp, located just 50 minutes north of Reno in Portola, CA, offers a refreshing retreat. It stretches over 515 acres of forested land, providing an experience that feels worlds apart, though only minutes away. The camp features 16 cabins, each equipped with its own bathroom and shower facilities, and can accommodate up to 12 people in bunk style. Gather your group of friends and adult family members, and plan an unforgettable memory-making trip.


Entertainment Highlights from the inaugural 2024 Camp

Multi-instrumentalist, singer and songwriter Kat Heart treated our campers to an exclusive and intimate performance around the campfire. Based out of Reno, Nevada, Kat’s performance alone is worth the ticket price for Grown-Up Getaway Camp.

Theo “TSAVO” Scott-Femenella is an artist, producer, educator, Afro-Indigenous farmer, and environmentalist. He’s spent the day with us at Grown-Up Getaway Camp with a DJ set poolside.

Liz Swindell is an artist, owner, and curator of Wild Pines, a local artists and makers shop in Graeagle, CA. She led an enjoyable and flexible painting session, allowing you to make your own creative choices, select colors that appeal to you, and express your inner artist. Sierra Nevada Journeys is the perfect backdrop for inspiration for her Paint & Sips session with us at Grown-Up Getaway Camp. You’ll leave camp with a cherished painting that you created representing your weekend away with us.
