Bushcraft Courses

Course Overviews

2-day Our short bushcraft courses have been designed for people whose time is limited, those seeking more specialist training, or the novice who wants a taste of the possibilities that Woodlore offers.

Expeditions For those that like something a little more challenging, we offer expeditionary bushcraft courses taking you to wild places and the true wilderness in the Arctic, tracking in Namibia, Canoeing in the Ardeche or Canoeing in Canada.

---

Family Modern life, we are often told, conspires to pull the family apart. Our family courses offer you the chance to be a real family unit. Just as much fun as camping but with the added bonus of discovering nature and experiencing bushcraft together in a stimulating and safe environment.

---

First Aid and Medical Training Our First Aid courses have been developed in partnership with Solo Medical Training Limited and are designed to instil life saving techniques by using scenario based learning.

---

Junior These bushcraft survival courses are aimed at adventurous youngsters not yet old enough to attend an adult course. Junior Fundamental courses for the 11-16 age group expose budding young Bushcrafters to the wonders of nature for a week without a parent or playstation in sight.

---

Special Take a walk in the woods, join a masterclass in carving or even build a Birch Bark Canoe - all with Ray! These are very exclusive events which Ray is only able to conduct when his filming schedule allows.

---

Week Our week-long Bushcraft survival courses are for those who want comprehensive instruction in the cornerstones of wilderness Bushcraft. Each is demanding and rewarding in its own way and will leave you with a higher understanding of the world through which you travel.

It is our firm belief that Wilderness Bushcraft has something of value to give to everyone. Hopefully this is reflected in our programme of bushcraft courses and educational Wilderness Bushcraft Survival courses that have evolved over the thirty years we have been operating.

At Woodlore, bushcraft course development is a never-ending process as we endeavour to bring the subject to a wider range of students. The skills and knowledge gained through Ray Mears bushcraft is extended and enhanced by tapping into the wilderness survival skills developed by many indigenous peoples and other experts in the bushcraft survival course field, including Lars Fält, Brian Desmond and many others.
