Woodland Ways Weekend Adventure

Join us for a two-night adventure filled with excitement, learning, and the beauty of the great outdoors. As soon as you arrive, you'll embrace the wilderness, gather around the campfire, and toast marshmallows while sharing stories under a starlit sky. This isn't just any camping trip; it's an engaging bushcraft experience designed for everyone.

Throughout the weekend, you'll dive into essential survival techniques that will empower you to thrive in nature. Learn how to build shelters, identify edible flora, and create your own fire without modern tools. Our expert instructors will guide you through hands-on activities, ensuring you not only gain valuable skills but also have a blast while doing so.

As day turns to night, the adventure continues. You’ll have the chance to connect with fellow nature lovers and share your newfound knowledge as you immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of the forest. This Woodland Ways weekend promises camaraderie, adventure, and memories that will last a lifetime.
