Lough Dan Scout Centre is a national Scout campsite and activity centre nestled between Mountain Scarr and Lough Dan in the heart of the Wicklow Mountains National Park, roughly 30–40 km from Dublin city.

Part of the site falls within a Special Area of Conservation, and the Wicklow Way runs adjacent to the property, connecting it on foot to Dublin, Glenmalure, and Rathdrum.

The centre offers four separate camping fields with water points throughout, a toilet block with showers and hot water, a wet-weather shelter, and a campfire circle.

A refurbished hostel provides dormitory-style accommodation with a kitchen and dining facilities.

Lough Dan has also been designated the world's first Scout Eco-Park, recognised for its environmental education programs and sustainable land management practices.

Access is restricted to Scout and Guide groups, Gaisce participants, and school or youth groups; the site is not open to the general public for family camping or day visits.
