Jamboree site

The Jamboree Map

39 000 Scouts in one place. From July 27 to August 7, the Jamboree will be the fourth largest town in southern Sweden, outnumbered only by Malmö, Helsingborg and Lund. Kristianstad, which is the closest town to the Jamboree, is usually the fourth largest city. In this new Scout city, who doesn’t need a map?

The campsite is divided into four towns: Summer, Autumn, Winter and Spring. Spring is the adult town where all IST and CMT will stay. Each town has it’s own square with, for example, Internet Cafés and information centres. The towns are further divided into sub-camps.

Four Seasons Square and Town centres

The main square of the Jamboree, featured to the left below, is called Four Seasons Square. It is the main hub of the Jamboree and here you will find the Jamboree shop, the bank, the post office and much more. If you are interested in food from different countries, you should head a little south to the food houses which are located nearby the main square. WOSM also has its World Scout Centre close by .

The sub-camp names

The sub-camps are named after characteristic places in Sweden. We’ve listed them all below with links to more information for the curious.

Summer Autumn
Finnerödja– an area famous for its grand strawberry fields.Karlstad – a town where the sun always shines.

Smögen – a small summer town by the sea with fabulous seafood.

Stockholm – a city built on islands and the capital of Sweden.

Vimmerby – the birthplace of the famous children’s book author, Astrid Lindgren, where, during the summer, you can meet Pippi Longstocking, Karlsson-on-the-roof and her other famous characters.

Visby – a medieval town located on the popular summer island of Gotland.

Bohuslän– a province where you can fish the famous crayfish that is feasted on in early autumn.Hunneberg – a beautiful national park situated by the largest lake in Sweden, Vänern.

Kivik – a town famous for hosting a big apple market in autumn.

Klarälven – a river where they used to drive logs, now great for rafting.

Sarek – a national park in the far north of Sweden, with a wonderful display of colours in early autumn.

Svedala – in the vicinity of Svedala you can stroll in colourful beech forests during autumn.

Winter Spring
Jukkasjärvi – a town in northern Sweden famous for its ice hotel.Kiruna – the most northern town in Sweden.

Mora – after 90 km of skiing one of the world’s longest skiing competitions ends in this town.

Polcirkeln (the Polar Circle) – north of here the sun never rises for at least one day in December.

Åre – Sweden’s oldest ski area which has hosted world championships in alpine skiing.

Örnsköldsvik – famous for its world class ice hockey players.

Spring town, where all IST and CMT will stay, isn’t divided into sub-camps. The space will, however, be divided into smaller areas such that people can find and walk comfortably to their tents.
