The walk in and out for this course is reasonably short, only about 30 minutes each way. We provide all the food required. Please let us know of any special requirements at the time of booking.

This is a trip into a beautiful wilderness location in the Blue Mountains, staying in your own tent, seeing places & things most tourists will never see.

Our Bush Survival, Bush Tucker and Navigation courses are led by an experienced team of outdoor guides. They share the bushcraft skills they have developed to stay alive while walking, climbing, canyoning and skiing in Australia, Europe, Central & South America, the Himalayas and Alaska.
