South Mountain YMCA is located just outside of Hershey, Pennsylvania in the foothills of the Pocono Mountains. South Mountain YMCA Camps offers a variety of options including Camp Conrad Weiser Overnight Camp, Bynden Wood Day Camp, Literary Theme Camps, and Equestrian Camps. Our internationally-known camp programs provide youth with an opportunity to feel a part of something bigger than themselves. We are accredited by the ACA, the CHA, and Praesidium. We have also been voted “Best Summer Camp” 2015 through 2023 by the readers of Berks County Living magazine.
We welcome you to the mountain and invite you to share in our Fire of Friendship, determined in our belief that every person shares the potential to grow in wisdom, to discover their unique and independent voice, to nurture others and to engage their communities. The fun and challenging programs we offer foster communication, trust, problem-solving and deeper spiritual connections, while preparing young people to lead and be led. The South Mountain YMCA Camps are more than a series of camping and retreat programs on the mountaintop, they are a way of life – a philosophy – that are exciting to explore and easy to embrace. Keep the Fires Burning!
