Join us for the ultimate outback adventure

In 2026, Bundoora Scouts is heading for Uluru and Central Australia. This will be a major expedition for Scouts and Venturer Scouts, with long travel days, red dirt, big country, and the kind of shared adventure that people remember long after the bus has been cleaned out.

The trip is open to registered members of the Scout and Venturer Scout sections who will be of age at the time of the trip. It is a serious expedition, so youth members will need maturity, fitness, and a willingness to work as part of the crew. The outback is not the place to discover you only packed enthusiasm.
