Gilwell Park Adventure Centre is the perfect destination for schools seeking a blend of outdoor adventure, learning, and team-building. Less than an hour from MelbourneÂ’s CBD, the site offers a safe, fully equipped environment where students can step outside the classroom and into an immersive natural setting. With 460 acres of bushland, modern facilities, and a variety of accommodation options, schools can confidently plan camps that balance comfort with authentic outdoor experiences. Our programs are designed to complement school learning outcomes while fostering resilience, leadership, and collaboration among students. From rock climbing and canoeing to environmental exploration with our AR Sandbox, activities are delivered by experienced staff who focus on safety, engagement, and student growth. Schools can also choose hybrid programs that combine camping with hardtop accommodation, ensuring flexibility for different year levels and group sizes. What makes Gilwell Park stand out is its ability to provide not just activities, but meaningful experiences. Whether itÂ’s students working together to cook their own meals, tackling the Ninja Warrior course, or simply sharing stories around the campfire, the lessons learned here go far beyond the campsite. We invite your school to join us at Gilwell Park and give your students a camp that will inspire, challenge, and create memories that last a lifetime.
