Every Opportunity

International activity trips for members of Guiding unlock every potential. They’re all about…

Empowerment

At the heart of our adventures lies the journey of empowerment! Whether navigating unfamiliar terrains, or immersing in new cultures, our experiences serve as the spring board for personal growth and self-discovery.

Community

Embracing community and giving back to the world is a core value of Girlguiding. Through local initiatives and team endeavours, Guides not only forge deeper connections within their group, but also create bonds with communities worldwide!

Friendship

Sharing challenges and triumphs is the key to friendship! Unforgettable moments together make friendships for life.

Skills

Master your balance with paddleboarding, hone your navigational eye with orienteering, or expand your cultural awareness with exciting initiatives across the globe. Our guiding activity holidays are set to inspire.

And Most Importantly… Fun!

Most importantly, our Girlguiding activity trips are all about fun – pure, proper, feel-good fun! Whether you’re white-water rafting in Norway, taking a day trip to Venice from your base in Croatia, or simply revelling in the joy of friendship around the campfire, we’re here to help you create memories that last a lifetime.

Our Chalet

Set against the stunning backdrop of Adelboden, Our Chalet stands as the captivating key to unlocking boundless adventure for Guides.

More than just a picturesque base, Our Chalet is the original hub to Guide tradition, woven with excitement, adventure, connections and friendship!

Feel the adrenaline-rush of white-water rafting, ascend through the mountains on a scenic cable car ride, and hike the trails to awaken your senses. Engage in Our Chalet’s badge pinning ceremony, and Swiss culture with cheese making, wood carving, and a medley of music and fondue delights.

Croatia

From snorkelling in caves to stand up paddleboarding at night on lit up boards, from swinging through the trees on a high ropes course to day tripping to nearby Venice, you won’t fail to create memories that your members will be talking about for years to come.

Croatia’s mediterranean climate makes every day feel like a holiday, the emerald waters of the Adriatic offer days of water sport fun, and the ancient walled towns give groups a rich and interesting cultural experience.

Greece, where the spectacular Geraneia Mountains open a world of exciting adventure, the crystal-clear saltwater lakes offer a host of water-based activities, and nearby cities like Athens have a wealth of history and culture to explore!

Enjoy activities like snorkelling, kayaking, a beach day and BBQ, stand-up paddleboarding, climbing, archery, or even something a little different like an escape room!
