Toby's Kandersteg International Scout Centre Trip 2026

Toby's raising money to go towards his groups trip to Kandersteg International Scout Centre in 2026.

He's going as part of a group of 50 scouts and adults to the camp in the Swiss Alps, meeting with scouts from all over the world, having once in a lifetime experiences, as well as making friends and learning about himself, others and the world.

Holmes Chapel Scout Hut is 811 miles from the Kandersteg International Scout Centre and each of the scouts have been challenged to walk/hike 32 miles over the summer to cover "their part" of the return journey.

It might not sound a lot, but for an 11 year old it's a fairly big challenge!

Toby will be looking to complete the challenge by doing walks in England, Denmark and Sweden.

The group have a tracker showing all of their updates - https://www.holmeschapelscoutgroup.co.uk/summer-hiking-challenge-tracker/
