MINSI TRAILS COUNCIL

In 1910, as the local Council of the Boy Scouts of America, our region’s first Scout troops were established in the Allentown, Bethlehem, and Easton areas. Today, Minsi Trails Council serves nearly 4500 youth with a variety of programs led by almost 2000 adult volunteers in the Lehigh Valley, Poconos, and surrounding counties in Eastern Pennsylvania and Warren County in New Jersey.

The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) will rebrand to Scouting America on February 8, 2025, the organization’s 115th anniversary. The name change is part of a rebranding effort to make the organization more inclusive and welcoming to all youth and families.

Find Adventures with Minsi Trails

FIND ADVENTURE CLOSE TO HOME

For well over a century, Minsi Trails has helped young people and their families find adventure in our local communities and the great outdoors that surrounds us here. 

Our number one goal has always been having fun. Minsi Trails offers limitless ways to do so—camping, hiking, canoeing, fishing, mountain biking, and snow tubing are just a few of the many exciting activities we do on a regular basis.

MAKE UNFORGETTABLE MEMORIES

There’s more to Minsi Trails and Scouting than just fun however—we also help youth develop character, leadership skills, and lasting friendships with their fellow Scouts. Growing up with Scouting is a positive life-changing experience that can give young people lifelong social skills and help create unforgettable memories that can’t be found anywhere else.
