I had the incredible Opportunity to attend "Survive the Wild", Over the few hours I learned essential wilderness survival skills, including shelter building, fire making, water purification and food foraging. It was a valuable experience that emphasized the importance of preparedness and resilience in nature.

Very exciting event led by experts in survival and occurring in the best weather time of the year.

Very informative and entertaining trip, well worth doing at least once.

Attending the survival wild on 19.11.2023 was an enlightening experience. The event offered practical insights into surviving with limited water, teaching efficient purification methods and emphasizing the crucial role of hydration. Learning to make fire and construct a shelter provided essential skills for navigating challenging environments. The hands-on approach allowed us to apply these techniques, fostering a sense of confidence and self-sufficiency. Instructors expertly guided us through real-world scenarios, making the workshop both informative and engaging. Overall, a valuable experience that equipped attendees with essential survival skills for unpredictable situations

The instructor's kindness and engaging stories made the experience not just educational but genuinely enjoyable. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to build practical wilderness survival skills with a personal touch.
