Unplug and recharge at the Women's Weekend Getaway!

Escape the everyday and immerse yourself in a weekend of relaxation and adventure at the YMCA Outdoor Centre.

Located at our scenic Outdoor Centre along the Ottawa River, the Weekend Getaway is for folks who want to explore and disconnect from their everyday life. We encourage participants to take what they need from this weekend, whether it’s a calm and relaxing few days in the forest, or a first-hand experience of what it means to go to camp at the Y! 

Weekend Getaway Highlights:

  • Outdoor Adventure - Go on a nature walk, try your hand at canoeing, archery, or challenge yourself with rock wall climbing and high ropes courses. Choose the activities that excite you.
  • Wellness and Self-Care - Enjoy yoga sessions and personal time to unwind and relax. A 30-minute private massage session is also available for an additional fee.
  • Community - Meet like-minded people in an encouraging environment.
