Lord Baden-Powell träumte von einem permanenten Mini-Jamboree, ein Ort, wo sich Pfadfinder aus aller Welt das ganze Jahr über treffen können. Dieser Traum wurde im Jahre 1923 wahr und seither besuchen jährlich rund 10'000 Gäste aus über 40 Ländern Kandersteg. Betrieben wird das Zentrum von einem Team junger Ehrenamtlicher aus aller Welt.

Hier ist unsere Geschichte beschrieben und was das Zentrum einzigartig macht.

Von Bonstetten wrote to Baden-Powell telling him of this magical place he had found, inviting him for a visit which happened in 1922. In February 1923 the "Scouts International Home" Association was set up. On 12 April 1923 the Chalet and some land was bought and the Centre came into existence. The cost was CHF 15,100.- and some of the sponsors included; the World Scout Bureau, HRH The Prince of Wales, and HRH The Prince of the Netherlands.

The rest, as they say, is history...
