Wednesday the 30th was the first full day on site
The morning was spent on a discovery hike which introduces everyone to the campsite, following instructions around and learning about the features.
Then it was back to our site for the first stint at training preparing the Scouts and Explorers for the hikes and expeditions
After lunch we took part in the Kandersteg hike, this is like the discovery hike but around the local area and village.
