For over 15 years, Virginia Outside has been running summer camps, teaching youth about the great outdoors and creating lifelong memories for both campers and staff members. Our Mountain Biking Camp was created to appeal to our adrenaline junkies looking for a faster paced week of camp! Richmond has some of the best urban mountain biking trails around and we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to introduce more kids to biking on these trails. It is a great way to explore nature and allows us to cover more distance on trail than we would by foot!
Campers will develop beginner and intermediate trail riding skills including: steering at higher speeds on tight trails, shifting timing, hill climbing and descending, dodging obstacles, trail etiquette, bike maintenance, riding safety and more. Campers will start each day with warm ups and then a nice long trail ride. Throughout the week we will spend time cooling off in the James River by swimming, tubing, and exploring the rocks.
Our programs provide meaningful experiences in the outdoors where kids learn, play, and grow their confidence!

Safety is our number one priority, so all campers will wear life jackets when in the water. We maintain a 1-to-5 counselor-to-camper ratio to ensure every camper gets some one on one time throughout the week to advance his or her skills.
Virginia Outside provides all supplies and gear needed to participate in our daily activities. This includes bikes and helmets, bike pumps, and spare tubes. (Campers are still encouraged to bring personal bikes as they are typically more comfortable riding a bike they are familiar with)
Pre-Camp Emails will be sent out to parents one week prior to the start date of the camp you registered for. This email will confirm camp type, time, meeting location, what to bring/what to wear and more!
2025 Summer Camp Registration will begin January 1, 2025
