Skymont Scout Reservation
Scouts BSA Summer Camp
2026 Scouting America Nationally Accredited Camp
Skymont Scout Reservation is located on the Cumberland Plateau on the eastern edge of middle Tennessee. Our camp encompasses over 500 acres with waterfalls, scenic overlooks, caves and wooded forest. The footprint of our camp allows us to get to know your Scouts while still providing extensive hiking and off-site opportunities for older members. Skymont is a traditional Scout camp. Our staff provides quality merit badge instruction while introducing your Scouts to the outdoor classroom we know as Scouting. Our staff will welcome you into our family with fun, games, and delicious camp meals along with something for everyone. Our 50 merit badge offerings include 11 Eagle-required options and 15 S.T.E.M.-related merit badges. We offer all levels of programming. Our merit badge program runs Monday through Thursday, with Friday reserved for make-up time, special events, and camp-wide games.
