First Flight

Camp Wartburg is a Christian camp located within an hour of the St. Louis metropolitan area, nestled in the rolling hills of Southern Illinois, near Waterloo. With 124 acres of woods, fields, water, and trails, Camp Wartburg seems far away to campers, but comfortably close to parents. Our summer program offerings include camps for grades K-12. We offer abbreviated weeks for younger campers who are not quite ready to be away from home for a full week and trip camps for high school campers who cannot wait to get away! Our days are jam packed with on-site activities like archery, canoeing, disc golf, high ropes, swimming, and more. Off-site activities are program specific and range from paintball, laser tag, and go-karting to horseback riding and river canoeing. Evenings include a camp-wide night game, such as Capture the Flag, and campfire devotions. College-aged counselors are sure to make your campers experience exciting and unique.
