Recreation
Hiking
The majority of Kanuga’s 1,400 acres are peaceful wooded areas with several miles of hiking trails. A variety of elevations and lengths ensure there is a trail for almost everyone. Many have scenic view points. There is a detailed trail map available at the Kanuga Front Desk.
Water Activities
The 30-acre Kanuga Lake is perfect for swimming, boating and fishing.
Two swimming areas are available at the Cuningham-Nevius Pavilion. The main area is from four to 15 feet deep and has floating docks for sunning. The Biddy Pool is a shallow, sanded area for young children. Swimming is only allowed when the waterfront is open and staffed by Kanuga lifeguards.
Rowboats and canoes are available April-October.
Fishing without a license is allowed in Kanuga Lake and Wilson Pond. Guests must provide equipment.
St. Paul's Colhoun Gym
The St. Paul's Colhoun Gymnasium has equipment for basketball, volleyball, ping-pong, and is suitable for other group activities. A large indoor climbing wall is available as an adventure activity.
Adventure Activities
Kanuga has a variety of adventure sites located on the property designed for fun and recreation as well as group dynamics and personal growth. Our instructors will help your group get the most out of its time at our facility by tailoring our program and facilities to best fit the goals and concerns of your group. If you are interested in scheduling your group for an adventure activity, please .
Climbing: The 50 foot climbing tower and nearby bouldering wall provide a chance for personal challenge, decision making, group support and encouragement. Another choice for climbing is the rock quarry climbing site where participants get the feel of real rock with a choice of three different climbs. During inclement weather, the indoor climbing wall in St. Paul's Colhoun Gymnasium may be available.
High Ropes: There are three high ropes courses at Kanuga with challenges that include names like The Catwalk, Earthquake Bridge and Pirate's Crossing. Each course gives participants the opportunity to face challenges individually, or sometimes with a partner, but always with the support and encouragement of the group.
Challenge Course: Our low challenge course includes activities that help groups get to know each other, communicate effectively and grow together.
