A Premier Christian Camp in Costa Rica
For years we dreamed and prayed for a large property that would enable us to build a state-of-the-art camp in order to reach many more young people with the transforming message of Jesus Christ. In 1998, that vision became a reality when God gave us a
600-acre cloud forest property bordering the Tilaran Mountain Range, 22 kilometers from San Ramon, Alajuela.
With the technical advice and wise counsel of friends from Hume Lake Christian Camps and the prayers and financial support of hundreds of Christians, we began building a camp for 150 teenagers. The recreational program and spiritual impact over the years were so evident, that we have been forced to grow our facilities and double our capacity.
La Montaña’s Phase I Camp now has the capacity for 300 campers. The facilities include boys’ and girls’ cabin areas each with a large restrooms, a dining commons, a 400-seat chapel, a large gymnasium and game room, a sports field, high and low ropes courses, 3 large ponds for water games, staff and guest housing, a Timothy Lodge and a office/reception area. And we continue to grow!
Opportunities abound for studying the area’s biodiversity and for hiking through forest trails. Exciting recreational activities, sports, hiking and back packing, mountain biking and roller-blading furnish fun for all. Small group Bible studies and dynamic speakers bring each camper face-to-face with Jesus Christ, and the dedicated staff serves to make every teen’s camping experience life-transforming.
