Unique experience of nature in Gastein Valley
The history of Gastein dates way back to Celts and Romans, who went through the valley to cross the „Tauern“-mountains and even settled there. Probably they went into raptures about that valley as well, like we still do nowadays. We enjoy the thermal springs and go hiking and skiing. Whilst searching for a suitable campsite for our jamboree we found a real gem: the campsite in Wieden, which is part of Bad Hofgastein! It provides everything a scout could possibly ask for: gentle camping grounds near the Gastein brook, surrounded by the alp huts and mountains of the High Tauern. Reason enough for us to orientate the programme during the jamboree to the “natural supply”. Hikes and trips to the High Tauern will be awaiting us as well as having a good look at Mother Nature and possible ways to treat her responsibly.
