At ONE WITH NATURE Survival School, we specialize in outdoor team-building training that pushes groups to collaborate, problem-solve, and lead—while immersed in the natural environment. This is not a typical team-building experience. Through wilderness survival and bushcraft challenges, participants learn to work together in real-world scenarios that require resilience, adaptability, and clear communication.
Whether you’re a corporate team, nonprofit staff, or leadership group, this training is designed to reconnect people with each other and with the natural world.
Why Choose Wilderness Survival for Team-Building?
Modern office-based team-building often lacks real stakes. But in nature, challenges are immediate and outcomes are shared. Wilderness survival team building brings your team face-to-face with physical and mental challenges that demand full engagement.
Participants must:
- Communicate effectively under pressure
- Delegate tasks based on real-time observation
- Solve problems using limited resources
- Adapt to changing conditions as a group
- Take initiative while supporting others
By working through scenarios like fire building, shelter construction, navigation, and emergency response, your team will gain far more than outdoor skills—they’ll develop trust, unity, and a stronger sense of purpose.
Program Structure
Our corporate adventure training sessions are fully customized based on your team size, goals, and schedule. The minimum duration is 3 hours, with full-day and multi-day options available.
Programs can include:
- Introductory wilderness skills and safety briefings
- Survival scenario simulations
- Firecraft and group problem-solving challenges
