HOW: 24 hour Survival Experience

Our HOW Overnight Survival Experience in Mylor, Cornwall, is designed for adults who are curious about their limits, interested in real-world survival skills, and ready to challenge themselves in a natural woodland setting.

This 24 hour experience draws on true survival stories and realistic scenarios. Participants learn practical bushcraft skills such as fire lighting, shelter building, tool use and decision-making under pressure, all guided safely by experienced instructors. The overnight element is central — as darkness falls, learning shifts from theory to reality, and participants experience what it truly means to live outdoors.

​

The pace is steady but purposeful, encouraging focus, resilience and clear thinking rather than competition or bravado. The experience builds confidence through doing, not being told, and creates a strong sense of self-reliance and capability.

​

This is for people who want more than a day out. HOW develops practical skills, mental resilience and a deeper connection to nature, finishing the following morning with a shared woodland breakfast and a sense of genuine achievement.
