Family Weekends
Get together
Family Bushcraft Weekends are a chance for the whole family to learn and practice essential camping skills together.
Ideal for novice campers, looking, but not sure how to get started, and experienced campers, keen to get away from the conventional campsite and try out some 'wild-camping'.
On the course we cover shelter building, fire lighting, campfire cooking, stealth games, and woodcarving.
Most people sleep in our hammocks, under bashas (tarp shelters), but you’re welcome to bring your own tent, or borrow one of ours.
Our public courses, on the last weekend of every month, April to October, are ideal for small groups, or if there are a more of you we can run a private course for you at any other time.
