For over 50 years, Redwood Country Day Camp has provided children ages 4 to 15 with an exciting and enriching summer experience. Known for its outdoor pools, waterslides, sports, arts, and nature programs on a private property in Vaudreuil-Dorion, Quebec, Redwood also offers a thrilling biking activity as part of its camp programming.
While Redwood is not a specialized Bike Camp, campers from grades 1 to 7 can experience trail rides on Redwood’s dirt bike trail. Whether a camper is learning to ride for the first time or ready for more technical terrain, biking at Redwood is a fantastic way to build confidence, coordination, and bike handling skills while having fun with friends.
Biking at Redwood: A Summer Camp Favorite
Designed for All Skill Levels
At Redwood, our biking program welcomes campers of all experience levels:
Beginner Campers: Instructors teach children to ride a bike on a quiet, grassy area, surrounded by trees.
Campers who pass the first test are then allowed to ride on the intermediate biking circuit.
Advanced Riders: Those with more experience can take on the sandy path that goes around the forested area and around the camp.
Guidance from Skilled Instructors
Redwood’s skilled instructors ensure every camper builds bike skills safely and progressively. Campers receive training in:
✔️ Braking techniques (including proper use of rear brakes and rear disc brakes)
✔️ Bike fit and handling for better balance and control
✔️ Trail etiquette and safety while riding in a group
✔️ Confidence-building exercises to help campers develop their biking fundamentals
Helmets are mandatory at Redwood. Safety comes first, with biking assessment every week to ensure that campers start at the right ability level.
