Explorer Belt

The Explorer Belt is the challenge of a lifetime, which is open to Explorer Scouts aged over 16 and members of the Scout Network. It is a chance to take part in a ten-day expedition that brings a real understanding of a different country, its people and way of life.

The Explorer belt is sometimes described as 'the antidote to the package holiday'. It is designed to help young people develop a real understanding of another country by travelling through that country, completing surprise projects, working as a small team and meeting local people.

To complete the Explorer Belt, an Explorer Scout or member of the Scout Network must:

Be over 16 years oldPlan and train for an international expedition as part of a small teamTravel to another country and travel through that country over ten daysComplete a self selected major projectComplete about ten smaller projectsKeep a notebook or diary during the expeditionTake part in a debriefing after the expeditionMake a presentation about the expedition
