Fort Scorpio is situated in the Madimbo Corridor, in the far North Eastern part of South Africa. It is a Special Forces training base, where various Special Forces training courses are presented.
It was established in 1989 and has served continuously as a training area ever since .
It is ideally situated for training, due to the variations of terrain in the area, and due to the fact that it is far removed from any inhabited areas – as all Special Forces training is done exclusively with live ammunition.
