Unforgettable Team-Building Days at Kilnsey Park

Leave the office behind and bring your team together in the great outdoors. Our hands-on experiences combine adventure, friendly competition and practical outdoor skills to create a memorable day that develops communication, leadership, problem-solving and teamwork.

From a fun day in the woods to a fully immersive 24-hour survival challenge, every experience can be tailored to suit your group, objectives and abilities. We have lots of options to choose from.

Survival Day Challenge

Put your team’s survival instincts to the test in a fast-paced outdoor challenge. Working together and against the clock, participants will complete a series of practical tasks inspired by the rules of survival.

Challenges may include:

Wilderness navigation
Shelter building
Primitive fire lighting
Water sourcing and purification
Outdoor problem-solving tasks
Preparing food over an open fire

Successfully complete the challenges and your team will earn ingredients for a well-deserved wilderness feast. There is just one catch: all modern cooking equipment has been removed. Your group will need to think creatively and use its new bushcraft skills to prepare the meal.

24-Hour Overnight Survival Challenge

For teams ready to take their experience to the next level, our overnight challenge offers 24 hours of immersive wilderness adventure.

Your team will establish a camp, build shelters, light fires and prepare its own evening meal before spending the night outdoors. The challenge continues the following morning with breakfast and further survival tasks.

This experience may include:

Navigating to camp
Constructing overnight shelters
Fire lighting using primitive methods
Camp organisation and safety
Wilderness cookery
Night-time team challenges
An outdoor overnight stay in hammocks
Breakfast prepared over the fire

It is a demanding but rewarding experience that builds resilience, trust and team spirit.

Wilderness Cookery

Discover how to prepare a delicious meal in the outdoors using fire, seasonal ingredients and traditional cooking techniques.

Your group could prepare feathered game, fish or locally sourced ingredients, depending on availability and your chosen experience. Without a conventional kitchen, everyone must communicate, share responsibilities and work together to create a memorable feast.

Campfire Bakery

Learn how to make freshly baked food over an open fire – without an oven in sight.

Participants will mix, shape and cook a selection of simple breads and sweet or savoury treats using campfire baking techniques. This relaxed, hands-on experience is ideal for encouraging creativity, conversation and collaboration.

Activities could include:

Bread on a stick
Campfire flatbreads
Fire-baked rolls
Sweet dough treats
Seasonal campfire bakes
