Programme
The International Rover Week starts on the afternoon of Sunday, 12th August and will end in the morning of Saturday, 18th August. During your stay you will camp together with the other participants outside on the KISC campsite, but as part of the programme we set out for you, you will also get the chance to spend a night up in the mountains in the Upper Hut, our own mountain hut in the Ueschinen valley. During the entire week, the participants will be accompanied by Helpers in charge of the Rover Week, ready to answer any questions and to help out with programme.
You won't get any chance to get bored during your time in Kandersteg as we have set out a complete programme for you that still allows for enough free time on your own. Consult the table below to get a detailed overview on the different days.
