We will meet at our riverside activity hub, where you will be introduced to your experienced instructor. After a quick safety brief we will head off-site to one of our wild bushcraft sites, making the most of our incredible surroundings.
We will focus on how to enjoy the environment safely and sustainably, how to light and manage a fire using a range of natural materials, how to toast marshmallows over an open fire, and how to build a sturdy shelter using a mix of equipment that we will supply, such as a tarp and a paracord, and what you find around you, getting to build your own awesome dens!
As a private booking or party, you will have options to focus on different areas of bushcraft, including knifework and campfire cooking, just let us know when you book and we will get everything prepared!
You’ll have plenty of time to try each skill for yourself, working in small groups to create your own fires and build your shelters before testing them against the elements, will you build something that can keep your team (or rubber ducky) safe and dry?
To finish up, we’ll gather around the communal campfire and toast some delicious marshmallows!
