“Lots of space for all your outdoor adventurous activities. All the sites are clearly marked with signs, and the grounds and activity spaces are fantastic. Overall a fantastic place to have a camp or host a large event!”

In 1978, Cataract Activity Centre was given to the Scout Association of Australia NSW Branch by The Government of New South Wales. The Minister for Lands, The Hon. Bill Crabtree, declared 103 hectares of Wedderburn State Forest to be a reserve for Scouts for a permanent Jamboree site. Additions in 1985 increased the total area to 160 hectares.

Our accommodation spaces hold up to 252 people, and up to 1,000 people can camp in each of our campsites.
