Questions about camping on the Scouting Estate
Other questions
Sustainability and Scouting go hand in hand. That is why the Scouting estate is also a sustainable site. You can see this everywhere on the estate. Campers can use free bicycles at the Zeewolde Scouting Estate, the site is designed in such a way that biodiversity is stimulated, but the buildings are also built from sustainable materials from the local Staatsbosbeheer. A gray water circuit is used, waste is separated and green energy is purchased. All so that nature has plenty of room to flourish.
Scouts learn at a very young age how important nature is
SCENES
Since the summer of 2018, Scouting Estate Zeewolde has officially become a member of the SCENES network. SCENES stands for Scout Centre of Excellence for Nature and Environment. There are three global conditions that must be met to be a member of the SCENES network. The Scouting centre must be natural, offer nature and environmental education and the environment must be taken into account as much as possible.
34 Scouting centres worldwide are affiliated with this network of sustainable Scouting centres. A SCENES site has committed itself to protecting the environment and also creating more understanding for the environment. The purpose of this network is to make Scouts (and non-Scouts) aware of the importance of nature and the environment, to keep the impact on the environment as small as possible and to protect the natural environment. More information about SCENES can be found on the SCENES website.
Would you like to get started with sustainability during your visit to Scouting Estate Zeewolde? Perhaps the World Scout Environment Program would be a nice part of the programme. Ask the Service Staff!
The Adventure House
The Adventure House was completed in 2020. The aim is to make this one of the most sustainable Scouting buildings ever. How we are going to do this can be read on the Adventure house page.
Faunatower
A good example of a sustainable initiative on Scouting Estate Zeewolde is the Faunatower. An attractive habitat for birds, mammals and insects. The seven-meter-high tower was specially built to further promote biodiversity.

A large part of our site has and is accessible via semi-paved paths and roads. In addition, there are several parking spaces for disabled people behind the Adventure House. We have 1 disabled toilet around the Adventure House for the camping fields.
In the Adventure House we have 4 double rooms with sanitary facilities, adapted for the disabled. The double rooms share the sanitary facilities per two rooms.
We also have a shower chair, an active and a passive lift. The beds in the disabled rooms can be adjusted in height/lower and are equipped with fall protection.
