The Wild Eagles is the only English-speaking scout troop in Finland, though other troops may have English-speaking Adult activities.  We have a variety of Finnish scouts and immigrants taking active part.  You do not have to be a pro in scouting or outdoors. If you are an old scout or a newcomer or you have never been a scout, it doesn't matter. You are welcome in our group. We are a multinational and diverse group. We love outdoor activities and want to learn more of nature. 

WE Adults group meets once a month. 

Events for us:

• Season's Opening at Lillhemt Village House 30.8.2025
  We arrange an event to all members and guardians and an open Socut Day for public. The event is part of the Espoo Day and Finnish Nature Day. It is from 11:00 to 14:00. 

More troop events you find here.

Activity plan for adults 2025-2026

We have a program designed to show new immigrants the range of activities which you can do for fun outdoors in Finland - in all types of weather.  It should also be fun for those who have lived here a while. The program is collaboratively developed.

The goal is to start with lightweight activities that don’t require any special skills.  All you need is good enough fitness to hike outside and some basic supplies (city backpack, water bottle, etc.).  We’ll introduce the activities carefully before doing them, so you don’t need any knowledge.  The emphasis is introducing activities which you will be able to do yourself later on.  You’ll meet a variety of different people and have some fun.  More demanding activities can be planned as people are interested in later.

Cost to attend:

• Wild Eagles troop leaders (adults trained for youth activities): at cost

• Other adult members of Wild Eagles Ry (including pending members): at cost

• Other guests (not covered under Scout insurance): at cost + 10e

Topics which may be spread among months:
