You get more. A LOT more. iD Tech is the very best experience built around your child—their interests, their skill level, their goals for the future. Our on-campus programs include an exclusive package designed for maximum inspiration and long-term success.

Summer fun is in full bloom at the Garden! Join us for a season of discovery, creativity, and outdoor adventures. Our nature camps are dedicated to inspiring a love for the natural world in kids of all ages. Each week, campers ages 6-15 will enjoy nature crafts, games, and explorations led by expert Garden Guides. All camps run Monday through Friday from 9 am-3 pm. Kids aged 6-9 can choose between our Nature Detectives, Tracks and Traces, My Big Backyard, or Grossology camps, 10-12-year-olds will enjoy our Mad Science or Garden Growers camps, and our 13-15-year-olds will get first-hand experience at our DIRTy Jobs camp!

Discovery Camp is where kids go to be kids – getting curious, asking questions, exploring new places, and feeling free – all while living inside Great Smoky Mountains National Park and gaining a deeper appreciation for nature.

Bring the family for a one-, two-, or three-night experience in Great Smoky Mountains National Park! Bond with your child while playing games that build confidence, awaken the senses, and fire the imagination. Get to know the forest and its creatures, wade in a cool mountain stream, sing songs and hear stories around the campfire, and, perhaps, before bedtime – you guessed it – see the fireflies light up the night.
