During the hottest time of the day, campers relax in the shade of their cabins during Rest Hour. In case you missed it, check out this post on what a “typical day” at Camp Tawonga looks like.

The Tuolumne River, which runs through Camp Tawonga. Campers love spending time at the river with their bunks, swimming and sunning on the rocks and just enjoying the beauty of nature!
