This course will introduce you to the main skills you would require to survive and leave you with a good understanding which, if you wanted to, can be taken further to increase your depth of knowledge and ability.
As most things in the outdoors take longer than expected we will be working in groups to ensure topics can be covered efficiently.
Subjects covered;
- Your natural surroundings and interpreting them.
- Shelter building using natural materials.
- Fire lighting including selection of suitable tinder.
- Water, sourcing, collecting, filtering and purifying.
- Additional subjects which may get covered if we have time;
Natural cord / string making using many different materials.
Camp gadgets.
A real adventure which will introduce you to many bushcraft skills. A great way to experience the great outdoors while learning.

What people have said about this course;
“I was bought a day course from my sister for a Christmas present to attend Red Oak Bushcraft day course and I only have positive praise for the course and Peter, the instructor. The course was organised but relaxed and Peter was never far away to offer advice when required. I learnt a lot for a relatively short bushcraft course. Bushcraft isnt all about fire but we all know thats the most rewarding skill to learn; I have since gone on to make fire by bow drill on my own after this course! Thanks Peter.”
"Had a great day and learned lots ! Brilliant and friendly instruction , cheers Peter. Would highly recommend the course"
