Great for Kids Parties. To really bring out your inner survivor why not combine Bushcraft with Archery.
Adult groups learn to survive using the resources available. The session includes fire lighting, boiling water for a hot drink and toasting marshmallows if you're really good!
Burns really hurt so safety is our priority, but that doesn't make it boring.
Your instructor will ensure that everyone knows how to light a fire safely and keep it under control.
If we cook on the fire, your instructor will demonstrate the safe use of the equipment.
Please ensure that long hair is tied back and avoid loose clothing.
Dress for the weather, survival situations don't always come along when the weather is nice.
Our Bushcraft sessions take place in the woods near Worsley Village, Eccles, Manchester as well as at the Kenwood Hall Hotel in Nether Edge, Sheffield.
