Camp WaNoKi

The primary goal of Camp WaNoKi under the direction of the Webster County Conservation Board is to provide outdoor education and recreation opportunities for the general public. A second focus of the camp is to create a facility that encourages education and recreation programming through partnerships with other youth groups.


The property is gated, but the public is welcome to park at the gate, hike the trails, and use the challenge course. If a special event is being hosted, the facility will be posted as "closed."
