    Welcome and first day of workshops

    • Activity Bushcraft
    • Accommodation Bivouac / Tent
    • Breakfast not included
    • Lunch not included
    • Dinner not included

    At 12pm, you will be welcomed and the team will introduce themselves, followed by a discussion about everyone's expectations. You will then set off on a short walk interspersed with practical workshops: learning survival skills, preparing essential kits, lighting a fire with a firesteel, and an introduction to foraging to prepare the evening meal.

    In the afternoon, you arrive at the bivouac site to set up camp. You learn about the principles of thermal regulation and how to build a communal shelter that allows you to sleep without sleeping bags. Preparing the sleeping area, storing firewood for the night, and other tasks will keep you busy before dinner.

    The evening takes place in a friendly atmosphere around the fire, with free exchanges and a review of the day's lessons.

    Day 1

Note

Meals will be very simple and consist of what we forage for that day. The goal is to experience self-sufficiency in nature as closely as possible. We will, however, suggest that you bring some food in your lunch bag.

The program is subject to change depending on the season and the weather; the order of the workshops may be reversed for reasons of comfort and pedagogy.

The activity is maintained regardless of the weather, except in the event of a climatic event that jeopardizes the safety of the group.

This bushcraft course in the forest will remain unforgettable for me. I was impressed by the instructors' level of experience and technical skill in the field of survival. The instructor was very strict about safety and corrected us when necessary; but he was also very attentive to everyone's well-being and had a great sense of humor (I laughed a lot). I also appreciated how, during the various workshops, he encouraged us to use our intelligence and imagination. We learned how to navigate, build a shelter for the night, light a fire in different ways, find food in the wild... So much knowledge was shared with us that it needs to be reinforced in future courses. Therefore, it is with great pleasure that I will repeat this experience. Finally, I loved the excellent camaraderie among all the participants. Our individual personalities certainly contributed, but the supervisor's role was far from negligible: he was able to mobilize everyone's resources, instill a team spirit, and convince us of the importance of collaborating to "survive" (become more efficient). Thank you so much 😊
