Escape to the Yorkshire Dales for an unforgettable Bushcraft weekend! Immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of the Yorkshire countryside, unwind around a crackling campfire, and forge new friendships as you reconnect with nature.

This weekend is your opportunity to dive into a variety of essential Bushcraft skills. Choose to sleep under a Bushcraft tarp or in a hammock—it’s your adventure, and the choice is yours. No prior experience is needed; whether you’re a first-time camper or a seasoned outdoors enthusiast, our expert team will guide you every step of the way.

This isn’t a test of endurance but an enriching experience designed for hands-on learning. You’ll be amazed at how much you’ll achieve over the course of the weekend. Discover the art of building shelters, master primitive fire-starting techniques, and hone your skills in preparing and cooking Fish & Game. Learn the secrets of lake fishing, and get creative with campfire baking and cooking.

Join us for a weekend of discovery and adventure in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales. We can’t wait to share this experience with you!
