National High Adventure Bases
Powerful locations make powerful memories
Seeing may be believing, but doing is remembering. The BSA’s National High Adventure Base locations range from tropical ocean to Northern tundra to Southwestern mountains, and every single one of them offers something unique. A weekend outside in a nearby forest is great, but hiking the trails and sleeping under the constellations at one of our High Adventure Bases can change a child’s life. High Adventure Bases bring Scouting’s values and teachings to life in unforgettable locations, so Scouts will remember every moment.
