ABOUT US
We are a leading outdoor education provider, located at the southern end of the Libretto Range in the Lewis Pass area, near the boundary between Canterbury, Inland Kaikoura and the West Coast.

Our programmes are varied; from 3-day experiential learning camps to 21-day Coast-to-Coast journeys, with objectives centred around each groups desired educational or developmental outcomes. Each camp is built on a strong focus on sustainability, resilience, integrity, and respect. Occasionally we also run weekend skills-based or family-driven programmes both on-site, and off-site closer to Christchurch and the West Coast. But one thing never changes; you have the opportunity to provide safe and enjoyable instruction in the NZ bush environment and deliver this with your individual personality and experiences. Your flair is key!
