Seward Park Summer Camps

Introduce kids to the wonders of nature.

Come explore the natural world with Seward Park ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ Center Nature Camps, where every day is an adventure waiting to happen. 

Nestled in Seattle’s Rainier Valley, Seward Park spans 277 acres of old-growth forest, 2.5 miles of shoreline, winding nature trails, playgrounds, and a lifeguarded swimming beach—the perfect outdoor classroom for curious kids.

Campers will spend their days wandering woodland trails, splashing along the shore, discovering birds and wildlife, creating nature-inspired art, learning about native plants, practicing wilderness skills, and—most importantly—playing, laughing, and building lasting friendships. Birding, swimming, and imaginative games are all part of this wild, joyful summer experience beneath towering trees and beside cool lake waters.
