Welcome to Wilderness Folk School
Bushcraft Courses
Help You To
Reconnect with Nature
At the heart of the Wilderness Folk Schools' ethos is a belief that connection to nature is fostered though participation within it.
Bushcraft is the study of how to live in nature and with nature, while using your knowledge of it to meet your needs and be comfortable.
Our bushcraft courses in Scotland teach you the wilderness skills you need to have your own experiences in the outdoors in safety, comfort and harmony.
