Activity Shed

The Omaka Camp Activity Shed provides groups with a range of resources to complete outdoor educational, fun or teambuilding activities. We have everything you need for days of fun without the high cost.

All of these team activities must be run by a supervising adult or a Qualified Instructor. Please contact Youthtown Outdoors on 381 3245 or outdoors.christchurch@youthtown.org.nz if you would prefer your activities to be led by Qualified Instructors.

Our Activity Shed is located between the hall and the lodge. The use of the Activity Shed is by booking only via the booking form.

Activity Shed Fees $2 per person per day
