"AGH Camps South West Sydney location is perfectly positioned just a short trip South of Sydney and only 2 hours North of Canberra. This setting makes it far enough to enjoy some time away from the day to day life, however, close enough to home to provide a level of comfort to the school and parents. Our accommodation features over 240 student beds and 20 individually ensuited teacher rooms beautifully backdropped on the edge of the Nepean and Cataract Rivers. The adventure activities are sure to challenge and encourage students to push themselves out of their comfort zones with the Gorge Swing and 3-tiered Adventure Ropes course giving an incredible view of the river and its surrounds."
