Welcome to 1st Durbanville Scouts
The 1st Durbanville Scout Group is part of the Kanonkop District in Cape Town, Cape Western, South Africa. Scouting is a worldwide youth development organisation. It develops young people socially, gets them involved in the community, and teaches them many life and leadership skills. Our troop is over 50 years old and has both boy and girl scouts. The Durbanville Scouts are a very strong team and feature well in most of the Scout competitions. Please sign our guestbook while you are here.

Kontiki 2012 - Michael H
This was the best Kontiki I've ever been to - if you weren't there you missed it all. Let me walk you through everything from the beginning. I woke up the Friday morning at 7:30 amped to go to Kontiki sadly I only left at 10:00. I arrived there at 10:30 give or take. Ryan Burns was already there. He got there at 9:30 - I know that's crazy but we also need to thank him for that because he got us our camp site and our construction site as well so thanks again to Ryan Burns for all that effort.

In December of 2011, 1st Durbanville roughed it on a 5-day camp in the hot and windy Caledon. We camped on a free-range pig farm called Glen Oakes.
