Camp in Camp

An essential part of Swedish culture is the right of public access to nature, which gives every Swede the right to access the natural environment, whether land is privately owned or not. We want to make sure that every participant at the Jamboree also gets to experience the Swedish outdoors, and Camp in Camp will provide this opportunity!

Scouts, in groups of 100-200, will take part in a smaller overnight camp outside the main Jamboree. The camp site will be situated in the forest, along a river or close to a sea. This “Camp within the Camp” will also give each and every one of the participating Scouts a chance to experience nature, the Swedish culture and traditions on a smaller scale.

The smaller camp will offer different possibilities from those of the main Jamboree. Long-lasting friendships can be made around a quiet campfire. An early morning walk in the forest, still wet with dew, can offer time for reflection. These smaller camps will be hosted by Scout Units from Sweden and the neighbouring Nordic countries.
