Fire lighting

Learn to light a fire without a match

Igniting a fire without the aid of a match is a gratifying activity that works for all generations. It demands some patience and determination but the reward is a beautiful glowing campfire.

Instructor lead session 

Under the expert guidance of a Fat Squirrel Outdoor instructor, you'll learn the ancient art of generating sparks with flint and steel. But that's just the beginning! You'll soon find yourself crafting a roaring blaze from foraged sticks and branches, adding an element of primal wonder to your outdoor experience.

Toast marshmallows to make yummy s'mores

For those who master the art of fire-making, there's yummy marshmallows to toast over the crackling flames, add some chocolate biscuits and you have a s'more that's scrumptious.

The adventure doesn't stop there

You'll have ample time to explore, building dens or simply unwinding in the hammocks, swaying gently beneath the leafy canopy. Come rain or shine it's an experience that promises memorable moments in the heart of nature.
