First survival experience? This activity has been designed just for you!
An instructor is waiting for you in the woods of Valdurasca to teach you the basic techniques of survival in a natural environment. You will learn how to light a fire, build a bivouac and many other notions that can always come in handy.
A day of survival, at the end of which you will have learnt something new!
What we will do
The appointment is at 08:00 at the meeting point in Valdurasca, a hamlet in the municipality of Follo (SP). We will be welcomed by theinstructor with whom we will spend this day of survival!
The course is also suitable for a first experience: it will be a first approach to the basic survival techniques in a natural environment, in this case the woods of Valdurasca, which are made up of chestnut and acacia trees.
During the day, the instructor will teach us how to orient ourselves using natural systems, make useful knots, use blades safely and light fires using primitive techniques. We will learn how to move in emergency situations, how to build a bivouac and how to construct a first aid kit. All lessons that could always come in handy!
A lunch break is planned during the experience, during which we can recharge our batteries by enjoying our packed lunch brought from home (a sandwich is recommended).
We will then return to the point. The experience will last a total of 8 ½ hours.
