New outdoor learning experience for primary and secondary pupils
Wilderness Academy is an authentic outdoor camping and adventure experience that immerses children and young people in all the benefits that nature has to offer.
The Academy includes a range of natural environmental learning themed activities, such as fire lighting and shelter building, blended with a range of traditional outdoor and adventurous activities, such as rock climbing and water sports.
We have four programmes designed to fit around your school and the needs of your pupils. Ranging from adventure days to 5-day camp residentials, our programmes maximise excitement, learning, personal development and fun, resulting in a truly magical outdoor experience.
The main venue for multiple night residential camps is Barnswood Scout Camp near Rudyard Lake on the fringes of the Peak District. At this site, facilities include a beautiful 63-acre mixed woodland with activity spaces, purpose-built toilet and shower facilities and buildings for meeting and catering.
