Our Survival skills & Wild camping experience takes place on remote privately owned land within the Brecon Beacons National park. You can book either a half day or full day survival skills in conjunction with our overnight wild camping.
On arrival your group will set up a Parachute canopy that will act as shelter and base for your stay. You will be taught essential survival skills that will enable you to create a functioning expedition camp.
Using a variety of techniques you will learn how to make your own comfortable natural shelter, how to light and manage a fire, how to arrange a fire for cooking and many other expedition skills.
Survival skills typically include:
*Emergency Shelter Building
*Friction Fire and other methods
*Finding and purifying water
*Navigation
*Wilderness cooking

Once the camp has been set for the evening many stag groups prefer their own privacy and the Instructor will leave the site and camp nearby. You will be provided with sufficient supplies i.e. firewood, food & breakfast the next day. For groups with any under 18’s an Instructor will always be on site overnight.
