2 Day Survival Course

  • Learn the basic survival skills
  • Learn to built your own shelter
  • Spend one night in the wilderness
Survival is the need to survive and your ability to adapt and overcome an immediate situation. Wilderness survival skills form the basics of bushcraft which usually revolve around finding shelter, water and food, and then on to finding a way back to safety. This is a two day course aimed at learning the basics of survival in a temperate climate. Over the two days you will build a shelter which you will spend the night in, make fires to cook from and learn how to gather and prepare your food. The course also covers basic fungi, plant and trees uses as well as basic navigation by day and night. This is a very practical course and is designed to dispel any myths about survival and teach realistic and useful skills. It is also a lot of fun!
