Overview
Picture this: a simple day hike has turned into your worst nightmare. The sun is setting, your phone is dead and you're miles away from the car park. What you do now could make the difference between life and death.
On this walk, you’ll learn and practice what to do – and what not to do – when the unexpected strikes. This walk is not a Bear Grylls bug-eating experience. It’s about building your confidence and bush know-how. From the shelter of your bivvy, you’ll watch night fall in the forest before you experience a ‘rescue’, a walk out in the dark and a cup of hot chocolate! Join Richard Margesson for a unique Festival adventure.
