 Nomad Course

A seven-day journey through the mountains and valleys of Lake District by foot and canoe, mastering the science and realities of 'going light'. Learning to 'journey' through this environment acts as a perfect microcosm for problems that may be encountered during more extended travel. This course delivers a multitude of mountain, canoe and bushcraft techniques encouraging the individual to reflect upon a variety of equipment, trail-craft and expedition methods. The Nomad course would also be very valuable to those completing Mountain Leader log books.
 Aboriginal Course

A six-day advanced survival course, learning to live as a British Aboriginal. This course is probably our most challenging, yet for those committed individuals who do undertake this experience the transition and rewards are not equalled by any other course we offer. It is not a course for the feint-hearted and often evokes deep reflection upon the meanings and realities of the wilderness experience and our place within it.
