The holiday programme was the initial purpose of Teen Ranch. With youth coming to Cobbitty from all over the Sydney basin to experience the adventure of a new type of camping in Australia, a place where they were able to experience a variety of activities from horse riding to campfires. Over the years the holiday programme grew, drawing hundreds of campers and volunteer staff each school holiday period.
Holiday Adventure Days
Our Holiday Adventure Programme is a series of day activities, tailor made to suit busy schedules and diverse interests. Each day programme is specifically designed for a fun and challenging experience for our guests. With a variety of options available each school holiday period, guests can choose an adventure to suit them, visiting as often as they please to hone their skills or to try their hand at new skills each day.
There are limited places available for the each day adventure, so be sure to get your applications in soon.
Junior Adventure Days
We have had a lot of requests for an Adventure Day for younger campers - so we have come up with three!
Our brand new Junior Adventure Days are designed to cater for youngsters between 6 and 9 years old. With two to choose from, there is something exciting to suit young adventurers who love the outdoors.

Our Summer Roundup ran from Wednesday 10th to Friday 12th January 2024. It was an exciting few days where campers experienced a variety of the activities offered at the Ranch and enjoyed the comforts of our air-conditioned bunkhouse overnight. With an 'Under the Sea' theme there was plenty of water activities accompanied by laughter and the creation of lifelong memories. The 2024 Summer Roundup was a great way to welcome the new year for those who attended.
There are no upcoming overnight Roundup camps at Teen Ranch for 2024.
