Outdoor Experience Days: Learn to make fire like our ancient ancestors during this one-hour bushcraft session in Northumberland. Led by experienced survival instructors, it’s a must-do activity for lovers of the great outdoors!

Bushcraft is all about thriving in the natural environment, much like our hunter-gatherer ancestors did for thousands of years prior to the development of agriculture and more sedentary lifestyles. Although most people no longer depend on wilderness skills for survival, they’re still a great way to reconnect with nature and the past—and that’s exactly what this one-hour session aims to help you do! Under the supervision of an expert instructor, you’ll gain hands-on experience preparing, lighting and managing a fire using a variety of modern and traditional techniques. You’ll have a go at the popular friction method, and with some perseverance, discover what a rewarding task fire lighting can be! 

The 1 Hour Bushcraft Session in Northumberland can be tailored to suit all experience levels, and vouchers make unique gifts for hikers, campers and other outdoor enthusiasts. If you think your loved one could be the next Bear Grylls or Ray Mears, why not treat them today!
