About the event

Building upon our Bushcraft & Survival Weekend, new skills are introduced and others are further developed.

We will build natural shelters, which you can sleep in if you wish, make a raised bed with a self-feeding fire, and this will include sourcing the timber we need, covering Axe use felling small trees and Knife work and safety.

Fire lighting will be re-visited, with a focus on the bow drill technique and cook fires. Natural navigation will be introduced, along with wildlife track interpretation, bark craft work, safe axe use, working with withies, tree ID and uses, and wild foods.

This course is aimed at people who are already proficient at fire lighting with a flame, and are ready to take their skills further in fire, water and shelter. Bow drill friction fire lighting form the main focus for fire lighting skills, so some familiarity with leave no trace camping and fire lighting will be assumed.

A lot of material is covered but the atmosphere is relaxed with teaching conducted to a tried and tested formula of practical demonstration and dedicated hands on time for you to master each skill. There is also downtime in the schedule where your instructor will be on hand to assist with any particular skills you wish to work on further.

By the end of the advanced bushcraft weekend course you will have the confidence that comes from the knowledge that you can thrive outdoors, even in adverse conditions, with skills that work in harmony with the natural environment.

As with all our courses, our woodland camp is focused around a covered area with communal fire and kettle. Tea, coffee, squash and water are available at all times in the camp kitchen brew box, free of charge. We also have a composting toilet on-site for your comfort.
