Walking down a well-worn path with a new friend, singing around a campfire, trying an outdoor activity for the first time - at Camp El Tesoro we’ve created a world just for children.

Camp is one of the most memorable experiences in a child’s life and Camp El Tesoro is just the place to create those memories! We’ve got the adventure and freedom of the outdoors along with opportunities to make new friends in a fun and caring environment.

Whether riding a horse, canoeing down the Brazos River or hiking to Mount Loma, campers can try something new or take a skill to the next level.

Your child is sure to have fun while gaining a sense of responsibility and respect for themselves, others, and their environment. All camp activities keep camper age in mind and aim to grow social and emotional confidence while having fun outdoors and making new friends. Cabin groups make daily decisions together, which teaches children a sense of community, as well as that vital life lesson - how to get along with others.

Camp El Tesoro is located in Granbury, Texas,  just 45 minutes southwest of Fort Worth.
