Switzerland 2026

In July 2026, the 28th Glasgow Scouts are embarking on an incredible adventure to Switzerland, where they’ll spend a week at the Kandersteg International Scout Centre, taking part in amazing activities and creating lifelong memories.

This trip promises to be an amazing experience. The Scouts will take part in a variety of activities, including exploring the stunning surroundings, engaging in international games, and embarking on off-site adventures.

A Unique International Experience

Our visit coincides with the 1st of August, a special day that marks both the Swiss National Day and the anniversary of the first-ever Scout camp. KISC hosts a day full of celebrations, including an International BBQ in the evening. It’s a fantastic opportunity to meet other Scouts and experience Swiss traditions firsthand.

We’ll also visit Oeschinensee, a beautiful mountain lake just a short cable car ride from camp. The Scouts will take in the breathtaking views and enjoy the Alpine Coaster for a bit of adventure.

Other activities include:

Rafting and high ropes in Interlaken.

An Explorer/Network Hike to the Ueschinen Hut, perched at 1,890m above sea level. Scouts will cook dinner, spend the night, and hike back down the next day.

Exploring Kandersteg, a charming mountain town well-prepared to welcome Scouts from around the world. The town offers plenty to explore and a range of activities to keep our group engaged.
