Summer Mountain Bike Camp for Kids
The day runs from 9:00 AM - 3:30. Tuition is $565 per week. Early bird discount of $40 applied to registrations prior to April 15. One soft and comfy camper t-shirt and snacks included.
At Fairfax Cycling Camp, we love biking and being in nature! We strive to share this love with your child in a context of safety, fun and support.
Riders aged 8 & up gather at 9 in the morning for a fun day on wheels, covering 8-16 miles, while learning safety, skills, & maintenance. Your child will connect with new friends and gain lasting relationships with older mentors in our thoughtful program which includes team building and cooperative games. We celebrate our achievements, and end each day at 3:30. Read more about why our youngest campers are 8 here.
Founded and operated by a local school teacher and his family, supporting the children in or care is our first priority. Each week is staffed by one adult leader, often a teacher, as well as several college and high school-aged counselors. Our highly experienced and qualified staff allows us to maintain a ratio of at least 5:1, ensuring that we are able to meet each campers’ needs safely. Read more about our crew here, and our Mentorship Training Program here.
Our campers have a wide age and ability range, from beginners who are comfortable on their bikes but new to mountain biking to riders who are highly skilled and fit enough to ride challenging single track. We take care to ensure that your child is in the right group! Our day is arranged to include a balance of time together as a large group, with smaller ride groups based on the ability of the camper.
We want all of our campers to gain confidence and have fun. We have noticed that the kids who have the best time, always have the right kind of gear. Check out our blog post on choosing the right bike for your child, and our equipment requirements for participating in (and enjoying) camp. As always, feel free to reach out with any concerns or questions you might have.
