WildPlay is an outdoor adventure park in Maple Ridge with ropes courses, ziplines and more. In the spring and summer it has Anti-Gravity Camps for children.
There are one-day camps for children and youth ages 7 to 14 on a number of school Pro-D Days. There are also weeklong day camps that run from Mondays to Fridays in July and August for youth ages 10 to 14.
These camps are so much fun, and great for building self-confidence and teambuilding skills! Spaces are limited though, so you need to book soon if you want your child to participate!

Day Camps at WildPlay Element Park
Camps are great activities for children, and there are few things more fun than camps that involve ropes courses, ziplines and axe throwing! Not only are they fun, but adventure camps with these sorts of activities can teach kids all kinds of valuable skills, from solving challenges to teamwork and self-confidence. They are also a great way to get exercise in the fresh air and nature!
WildPlay has locations in Maple Ridge, Victoria and Nanaimo, and all three offer amazing adventures for people of all ages as well as special Anti-Gravity Camps for children.
This article has information about the camps in Maple Ridge. To learn about the camps in Victoria and Nanaimo, you’ll find some details about those locations in this article too.

SUMMER Anti-Gravity Day Camps at WildPlay
Weeklong Anti-Gravity Day Camps at WildPlay in July and August are similar to the camps in the spring, except for a couple of things. Instead of being for just one day, they run for five days, from Monday to Friday. Also, they are just for youth ages 10 to 14 who are at least 4 feet and 5 inches tall.
Participants in the summer camps learn similar things as they do at the camps in the spring, and so much more. The community and teambuilding aspects of the program are even more significant and intense when children can work together to solve problems as a team over multiple days. These camps, in our opinion, are awesome!
The summer camps cost $450 per child. If your child already has an annual pass, you can save $20 if you use the promo code AGCSP.

SPRING Pro-D Day Anti-Gravity Day Camps at WildPlay
Single-day Anti-Gravity Day Camps take place at WildPlay in Maple Ridge on May 17th, September 20th and October 1st in 2024. These are all weekdays, but ones that also happen to be days without school for many kids because of Pro-D Days in various Lower Mainland school districts.
The one-day outdoor adventure camps in the spring are co-ed and for children and youth between the ages of 7 and 14 (and who are a minimum of 3 feet and 9 inches in height).
The camps are for both boys and girls and there is one camp leader per group of eight participants. Each session has a maximum capacity of just 24 campers, so space is limited! If you want your child to join the adventure, you’ll want to register as soon as you can.
Each camp runs from 8:30 am until 5:30 pm. The cost is just $89.99, which is a great deal! It’s even less expensive for season passholders too. If you have an annual membership with WildPlay you can save $20 by using the promo code AGCSP. Also, if you don’t have a membership, if you use the promo code VBP15 you can still save 15% on the cost of the camps!
During each session participants usually get to do the kids’ ziplines and Jump of Fear. They also get to go on either the Kids’ or Classic Adventure Courses and try their hands at axe throwing!
In addition to having a blast, children at the camps can learn about themselves, working in community, self-confidence and teambuilding.
