Gilwell Park in Victoria was inspired by Gilwell in England, which was donated to the Chief Scout of the World, Baden-Powell, in 1919 as a training ground for Scout Leaders. In Victoria, the first Wood Badge course was held in 1925, and the property near Gembrook was later donated to the Scout Association, becoming a permanent training camp. The park has evolved over time, with landmarks like the Hoadley Gates and Somers Walk commemorating significant figures and events in Scouting history.
