The Scandinavian Way

Our way of teaching is base on traditional Scandinavian bushcraft and the indigenous Sami people of Lapland

Everything we teach at Raven Wilderness school is about feeling comfortable and at home in the forest. Nature provides everything you need to survive outside. Whether it is for a camping adventure or if you ever found yourself lost in the forest (on purpose or not). From natural shelters, making cordage, foraging for berries and plants you can safely eat or use for medicinal purposes, nature's abundance provides all. Learn to make primitive traps for much needed protein through hunting and fishing, and be able to make fire a without a match or lighter. The skills you learn here at RWS, not only connect you closer with nature, they change who you are and how you look at the natural world. Be that person in your camp who says, 'I got this, I can make us a fire, I got this, we can filter and boil our water'. Our instructors will work with you until you completely understand the task at hand. Our goal is to teach you to become more confident in the forest.

We teach year round classes to all age groups and skill levels. Anyone who wants to learn how to live in the forest is welcome.

If you have any questions about anything at all please give us a call or send an email. We will be glad to speak with you about planning your next wilderness adventure!
