Europe- The Lands of Adventure!

Lands of Adventure is a programme for scouts aged 11 to 16, developed by many scout associations from European countries, coordinated by the European Scout Office, which is situated in Geneva, Switzerland.

The aim of Lands of Adventure is to reinforce the idea of a common peaceful Europe, and also to allow Scouts to gain an appreciation for their European neighbors.

“LoA“ is open to scouts from all over the European Scout Region, which includes all countries from Ireland to Greece and from Portugal to Finland, as well as Turkey and Israel.

Welcome to Lands of Adventure!

You already know that scouting doesn’t end at the border of your home country. But did you ever have a closer look at the people, culture and scouting of other countries?

Lands of Adventure gives you the opportunity to get closer to Europe, to realize your creative ideas, to share the results of your work with other scouts and to make new friends of your own age over the internet … and maybe even in real life!

Join in and realize: You are part of Europe!

The Lands of Adventure Programme ….

There are three parts to the Lands of Adventure programme. They can be completed in any order, although it is recommended that patrols begin with Express EURself.

The programme is patrol based, and all 3 parts should be carried out by patrols.
