π Discovery Explorer Scouts β Summer Camp 2025 π
Botany Bay, South Wales
What a week! Our Discovery Explorer Scouts have just returned from an action-packed summer camp based at the beautiful Botany Bay campsite in South Wales. With a mix of adrenaline, adventure, challenge and reflection, it was a week to remember.
Highlights included:
π§ββοΈ High ropes at Zip World β testing limits and building trust
π¦ Gorge walking and rock climbing at Dinas Rock β full-on adventure in stunning surroundings
π΅ββοΈ Mountain biking through the Forest of Dean
π£ Kayaking and taking on the river
π₯Ύ Two-day expeditions through the Brecon Beacons, including one team summiting Sugar Loaf Mountain
Every Explorer pushed themselves, supported each other, and learned something new β not just about the outdoors, but about who they are and the kind of impact they have on others.
π At the end of the week, we reflected on whether weβd left a green or red fingerprint on those around us β a powerful reminder that the mark we leave can build others up or tear them down.
Huge thanks to our dedicated volunteers who made the week possible β your time, energy and belief in our Explorers make all the difference.
