What to Expect
Our sessions combine adventure, learning, and reflection in a relaxed, informal woodland setting. Each experience is tailored to your team’s goals — whether you want to boost collaboration, celebrate success, or simply get everyone outdoors for something truly different.
A typical half-day (3.5-hour) session might include:
🌲 Arrival & Navigation Challenge
Begin your experience by working together to navigate through the woodland. This opening challenge sets the tone for communication, cooperation, and shared problem-solving from the very start.
🔥 Fire Lighting & Cooking Challenge
Learn to spark and sustain a fire using natural tinders and firesteels. Then work together to achieve a practical task such as boiling water, melting ice, or burning through cord — blending skill, focus, and persistence.
⛺ Shelter Building with a Twist
Plan, construct, and adapt as your team builds a weatherproof shelter using tarps, ropes, and woodland materials. Expect an unexpected “twist” that will test flexibility, leadership, and problem-solving.
🪵 Woodland Team Challenge
A surprise challenge brings together the skills developed throughout the session — testing leadership, trust, adaptability, and effective teamwork in a dynamic outdoor setting.
☕ Reflection Around the Fire
Gather around the fire circle with a hot drink to share key takeaways, insights, and moments of learning — a calm and reflective close to an immersive experience.
