Survival for beginners

Main aim of the course– to give the paricipants theoretical knowledge and practical skills, 
which can be used not only for camping in the nature but also for everyday life. 

This is a course for everyone. During the course you will experience many positive emotions and spend your time in nature. During this course, we will provide you with theoretical knowledge of survival in the nature. You will gain useful practical skills by learning how to work in a team. Families or groups of friends are especially welcome in the course, but if you arrive in a vein, you will be divided into groups. The course can be attended by anyone who wants and is not restricted (minors must have parental (or guardian's) written consent).
