Camp La-No-Che is known for its unique trails for
scouts of all ages. We challenge you to explore the
history of our Camp and experience our trails.
Cateye Trails (Always use the buddy system in camp)
The Cateye Red Trail is marked with red reflectors which the Scouts follow. The
route uses existing roads and trails through the east side of camp to provide a
challenge for everyone. Remember to bring your flashlights, look up and keep a sharp eye out for the red cateyes.
The Cateye Blue Trail is marked with blue reflectors which Scouts will follow with
the aid of their flashlights. This trail was blazed by the ecology staff and is about an hour long. Remember your flashlights and keep an eye out for the blue
cateyes.
Sulfur Springs Trail (Always use the buddy system in camp) This spring is one of the natural wonders of La-No-Che which is being preserved
and protected. Because of this protection, you can experience this wonderful ecosystem which unfolds before you. Please do not damage plants and trees
along the way, but take lots of pictures. Also, remember that the spring is not a swimming hole.
Trapper Creek Nature Trail (Always use the buddy system in camp) This is an adventure in wetland forests and creeks that sometimes flow under
two bridges. The wood ticks and mosquitoes may be a problem, so bring your repellent and spray your ankles. Hikers may see close to half of Camp La-No-
Che’s plant species on this trail along with many different types of animals
