Camp Trask Facilities

Camp Trask, also known as Trask Scout Reservation, offers an amphitheater, pool, ranges, trails, and basecamps in Monrovia Canyon Park. Facilities operate on program days. Check the calendar before planning around a specific amenity.

Amphitheater & campfire ring

Evening gatherings, songs, and skits happen around the fire ring. The tradition goes back to the earliest seasons. Programs at the amphitheater run on scheduled program days.

Swimming pool

Supervised pool time during program days and summer camp. Pool programming depends on the event schedule, so check the calendar for what is running.

Archery & shooting ranges

Safety-first marksmanship led by trained range staff. Range activities are staffed events, not drop-in activities.

Trails & ecology areas

Guided canyon hikes through oaks and chaparral, plus nature study areas for ecology programs.

Campsites & basecamps

Basecamps for weekend outings and day programs. Sites are assigned through the council reservation process.

Good to know

Parking is free in the camp lots, and the terrain throughout camp is uneven, so wear appropriate footwear. For routes, parking details, and the packing list, see directions. For overnight planning, read camping at Camp Trask, and confirm what is running on the events calendar.
