What people are saying about The Wilderness Project
-
“My daughter absolutely LOVED the Creative Crafts course, thank you! She particularly liked the fact that you taught and trusted them to use tools properly, and I loved the fact that all of the activities were so unique, and nothing she’d have done anywhere else. She also mentioned that she thought Nicky, the instructor, was great. It was obviously brilliantly organised, and she will definitely be signing up to future courses!”

"Worth every penny. The set up, level of instruction and the manner of which it was delivered, is well worth the 5 stars. Sam the bushcraft instructor and Gavin the guest instructor delivering the foraging element of the course, demonstrated both a wealth of knowledge and experience throughout. Highly recommended and a great experience."

"I recently attended a night navigation session in the Elan Valley with Phil from Learn Outdoors. It wasn't the first time that I'd been out on a walk lead by Phil - he is clearly very knowledgeable as well as friendly and approachable. It was a great learning experience, pitched at just the right level. Highly recommended!"
