Since 2001 we have trained over 450 people to be polar competent, undertaken 7 major expeditions and been cited for our data-gathering by some of the world's top scientific publications and journals.
Our comprehensive wilderness and expedition training programme for adults, gives you ALL the skills necessary to venture into the extreme environments of the world.
Starting with our Expedition Core Skills on wonderfully wild Dartmoor, Devon UK - providing all the technical skills to become a competent outdoors person. Medical Training, Campcraft, Navigation, Technical Ropework, Kit & Clothing and other expedition skills.
If you are thinking of immersing yourself in Mother Nature's hands then preparation is all important; especially for the cold climes. It will help you to really get the most out of the experience and may even save your life.
And from there we can take you to Svalbard, just 800 miles from the North Pole onto skis, pulling a pulk, living and experiencing one of the world's most harsh but spectacular regions.
....more campcraft
polar survival skills
and learning how to deal with the dangers.
So that you're prepared for any and every eventuality.
Join us and give your life a real lift.
And if you want to test yourself to see if you are suitable, before committing to training, then we have a Selection Weekend you can attend.
You’ll find, no matter where you are in terms of skills development, there is a place for you within the programme and we measure and record your development throughout, so whether you’re heading out on the moor, into the mountains, towards an Ice Warrior flagship expedition or considering your own expedition, you can join us at any stage.
