About Yagilu Wilderness Camp

At Yagilu, we provide challenging experiences that require participants to step out of their comfort zone. This can come in the form of a challenging hike, or a group game that encourages collaboration. This is followed by a debriefing session, where we analyze the experience and discuss the successes and failures. By going through these experiences, participants learn to recognize and understand their own strengths and weaknesses, resulting in increased self-awareness. Ultimately, we strive to help people become more content and confident. Through our activities and bonding experiences, we are providing an avenue for everyone to grow into a more self-aware and happier person.

Wilderness Camp
Yagilu offers a safe and adventurous summer, where the boys can enjoy the calm and inspiration of the forest. In Yagilu, campers open up to the wonders of Hashem’s natural world, and learn to appreciate their place in it. Highlights include gratifying hikes with astonishing views, meaningful Shabbos davening and dancing, and different trips (these change every year and have included white water rafting, caving and rock climbing trips). The campers also learn Mountain Torah – a unique way of learning halacha through all of our activities. The camp adventures begin in our camp site in the mountains, where the campers spend most of the summer. There the campers get to enjoy traditional camp comforts, like sleeping in a bunk house on a bed, and three hot, delicious and nutritious meals in our dining room. The activities are where the wilderness survival experience begins!
