Spend a week this summer at Camp Sacramento enjoying the beauty of the majestic Sierras! Join us for Arts and Adventures in The Sierras!

The City of Sacramento’s 50+ Wellness Program hosts affordable, mini vacations at Camp Sacramento in the Eldorado National Forest along Highway 50, just 18 miles west of Lake Tahoe. At an elevation of 6,500 feet, the tall pines, clear blue sky, and meandering river, Camp Sacramento provides a scenic setting that offers a wonderful way to relax in the mountains.

“Arts and Adventure in the Sierras”, a summer camp designed especially for older people, offers a wide variety of opportunities during your 5-day, 4-night stay, including meals, traditional camp activities and social events. Lodging is in rustic, but comfortable cabins at this charming, historic camp operated by the City of Sacramento since 1920.

Experience this world-famous area with its many recreational activities. Hike the Eldorado National Forest and Lake Tahoe Basin. Explore the area’s many lakes and vistas or relax in Camp Sacramento’s serene setting. You can participate in the scheduled activities or consider Camp Sacramento your base camp to experience outdoor activities of your own choosing. It’s up to you!
