This isn’t for everyone
24 hours on a beautiful forested hilltop.
On the 24hr Wilderness reset you’ll be required to do something most men can’t;
- Switch your phone off
- Switch your senses on
- Breathe deeply and feel a bit more like the man you were designed and built to be
Community and Experience
l like to keep things simple so we’re only really focussing on two things:
Community: The company of other men.
Experience: The warmth of a campfire, watching the stars from your hammock, building things of use with your hands, watching the sun set from a hilltop.
Learn the skills
Once we reach the site we’ll have lunch and then take some time to look at how to rig your hammock and tarp for the best night’s sleep.
We’ll also look at a variety of other old-school outdoor skills that make a night out in the trees easier and more enjoyable.
The world’s oldest forum
We’ll cook and eat at the campfire, the same way as the ancient men we’re descended from. And we’ll just talk.
No gongs, no robes, no roleplay.
A night under the stars
Obviously it’s up to you when you turn in for the night but you’ll sleep in the tarp and hammock shelter you built earlier in the day. That can be close to base-camp, or further out.
Either way, you’ll be warm and comfortable.
Questions
Do I need to be super fit?
No, but the walk in to the site takes about 50 mins and is mostly uphill.
Will I have to talk about myself?
You don't have to bare your soul but your voice, your experiences and your opinions matter.
Feel free to share them.
I've never been on a men's retreat
If you're a man looking for new experiences, new perspectives and new friends then you're qualified.
Why the bread picture?
Because I don't have a 'question' picture.
Next steps
You’ll need a rucksack of around 60 litres or more, a sleeping bag, and seasonally appropriate clothing. I’ll provide the rest.
The walk in takes about 45 mins and is uphill on good paths. Cost is £300
If you’re not coming by car, talk to me about transport. We’ll work it out!
