SURVIVOR

Team Building In The Wild

Armed with only a selection of basic survival tools, teams must work together to demonstrate their ability to survive and sustain themselves in the wilderness.

In this immersive outdoor team building experience, groups are challenged to complete a series of practical survival tasks against the clock. Success depends on teamwork, communication, problem-solving and resourcefulness.

Under the guidance of our experienced instructors, teams will need to think carefully, manage resources effectively and adapt to the environment around them.

The Survival Challenge

Your team will be assessed on a number of survival based tasks, including:

  • Building and maintaining a controlled fire
  • Boiling water safely
  • Identifying how and where to source water
  • Constructing a shelter suitable for two people
  • Identifying useful bugs and plants within the environment
  • Setting a basic survival trap and explaining its purpose

Back to basics

Our instructors provide safety guidance and support throughout the session, but teams are responsible for demonstrating their own survival strategies without step by step demonstrations.

The experience is designed to be hands-on, engaging and environmentally responsible.

Environmental Responsibility

We operate a strict leave no trace approach throughout the activity.

Teams are instructed to:

  • Use only dead wood for fires and shelter building
  • Avoid damaging live trees or vegetation
  • Respect the surrounding environment
  • Leave the area exactly as they found it
