Welcome

Welcome to Heldeberg Workshop

Heldeberg Workshop offers one-week outdoor courses for students in kindergarten through high school in New York’s Capital Region. Led by certified teachers and skilled artisans, our programs combine hands-on learning with adventure, creativity, science, and the natural world—giving young people the opportunity to explore new interests, build confidence, and learn by doing.

Each course is thoughtfully designed to foster independence, teamwork, and a deeper connection to the outdoors.
