Wildwood Bushcraft (Scotland)

What an amazing experience - the canoe foraging excursion was hands down a highlight of our two week trip to the highlands. It was really educational and very enjoyable. Leon is a wonderful host. Would be more than happy to return and do one of his other courses.

Together with my partner and dad I took part in the nomadic coastal survival weekend. As intended, we experienced a challenging weekend which helped us to better understand the types of issues one might be dealing with in a survival situation. Leon taught us lots of skills and shared a wealth of knowledge about edible plants and foods that can be foraged around the Scottish coast. I would recommend the course to anyone who has some previous experience of bushcraft and is looking to extend this knowledge in a more challenging environment. Considering the objectives of the course, it would be wrong to describe the experience as 100% enjoyable or fun (be prepared to get wet and cold without the option to dry off before going to bed and reduce your food intake); however, I feel like I gained very valuable skills that would have been difficult to replicate in a less remote area or more comfortable situation. After all, being in such a challenging environment is part of the learning experience. Nonetheless, I made many positive experiences and I particularly enjoyed the pristine environment in which the course took place and the camaraderie between all participants.

Had a great weekend doing the coastal foraging course. The event comprised of a mixture of collecting, preparing, cooking and finally eating a wide variety of marine based dishes. Lots of knowledge from Leon, which he shared with the group.
