Gilwell is the official Training Centre for the Gauteng Area. For the past 88 years or more Scout Leaders have been trained here and enjoyed good fun and comradeship over the weekends, as Scouters will continue to do so in the future.

The park-like grounds of three hecters are situated on the south west corner of Florida Lake which is 16 km from Johannesburg.

Whilst Gilwell is the official training centre, Scouts and Cubs are welcome to camp there, and any enquiries should be addressed to Gauteng Area Headquarters.

Old Scouts, new scouts and friends are welcome to visit Gilwell at any time and are asked to contact the Warden on arrival.
