Located in a beautiful nature reserve, one of Israels finest settings, eCamp is a sleep-away summer camp in Israel that focuses on the growth of campers as individuals and as a family.

As a Gigabyte camper (entering 10th, 11th or 12th grade) you can take our special leadership and entrepreneurship track and discover your inner entrepreneur. Your team will invent an innovative new product and go through all the same steps as start-up companies in the real world.
Nothing compares to visiting technology companies like Intel and Google and witnessing new technologies in the making. After the visit, well play Laser-Tag in the woods - an unforgettable day-trip. Each session of eCamp includes a Tech Trip for all campers and another Gigabyte trip only for our oldest campers. Other events include a LAN party with giant-screen game tournaments, Maccabiah sports weekend, Israeli start-up shows and more!
Due to the size and structure of our camp, all campers and staff become close friends within just a few days. Before camp, our office team will assist with your specific needs, help you make travel arrangements, and make sure your child gets full and personal attention at camp.
Counselors instruct workshops and lead camper groups, while keeping an average ratio of six campers per counselor. We start training our staff months before camp starts, after carefully selecting each and every person. Our staff members are college students and graduates, people who have served in the Israeli armys technology units, and experienced camp counselors, coming mostly from Israel and North America.
Campers safety is our number one priority. The camp is secured and patrolled 24 hours a day and our medical staff is readily available at all times. eCamp meets and goes beyond the requirements for Israel summer camps
Build a summer itinerary that consists of one or multiple eCamp sessions and add our pre-camp Israel Discovery trip to extend your experience. Workshops are offered from beginner level to advanced, from creative digital media to complex computer programming.
Oranim Educational Initiatives, our parent company, is the leader in Jewish educational travel and Israel programs since 1986. At eCamp, we utilize the best tools and facilities to provide a premium experience.
eCamp takes a pluralistic approach to Judaism, where all are welcome. Campers and counselors explore their identity together and enjoy a traditional Shabbat atmosphere. A synagogue is within close walking distance, all food is certified kosher, and our Judaic staff is available to support our more observant participants.
At eCamp, the wonders of Israeli technology are revealed. Realizing that modern Israel has an incredible impact on the world in which we live is fun and exciting.
