T1 Hill Skills Weekend Course – Hold the Date

Between: 17th October 2025 - 19th October 2025 Location: Dartmoor Activity Centre Sections: Scout Network, Adult Volunteer Event Organiser: Avon Scouts Hillwalking Unit
HOLD THE DATE 17th -19th October 2025
This year we are returning again to the excellent Dartmoor Activity Centre, near Haytor for our highly popular T1 Hill Skills weekend course.
The plan is for 2 full days of T1 hills skills development making full use of the fantastic terrain around us with 2 nights half board catered bunkhouse accommodation. This will be suitable for those scout leaders with a bit more experience looking to kick-start or consolidate their development with practical instruction in the basic foundation skills for hillwalking with Scouts.
Booking details will be released later on in the year but pencil it in your diary now, so you don’t lose the date.

The King continues a long tradition of the monarch giving their Patronage, dating back to 1912. This was when Scouts was granted its Royal Charter and HM George V became our first Patron.
