We're exceptionally excited to announce we have a single place up for grabs on this adventurous journey throughout 2024 for girls aged between 13 and 15.
Do you have a teenage girl who yearns to experience freedom and independence, and wants to go on the adventure of a lifetime?
Organised and run by Wild Guides and mentors Chris Packe and Elena Harris, Wolf Pack is a year's journey for a tribe of girls becoming women, aged 13-15 years (academic Years 9 to 11).
They take place during half terms and school holidays through the seasons, in beautiful environments in Sussex, Dartmoor and the Peak District.
Risk, challenges and meaningful shared experience in the warm company of strong role models and fellow adventurers are vitally important for young people, to discover their huge capabilities, what they might stand for, and to develop a deep-seated self-reliance.
Wolf Pack exists to facilitate deep encounters, learning through experiences in the natural world at the edge of comfort and ability, where the magic happens.
The adventure begins in the woods, travels through wild Devon moorland, steps it up further in the Peaks and culminates with a final Fire Quest. Skills learned include bush-craft and survival skills, campcraft, navigation, foraging, nature awareness - but the beauty of quality, immersive time in nature is that it tends to offer up exactly the lesson a person needs at the time... but often does not expect.
Wolf Pack invites you to come and discover the vast resources already inside you, learn new skills, make new friends, discover new possibilities and perhaps take an important step or two in the journey of adulthood.
THE JOURNEYS IN 2024 (13 days in total across the year):
May 25-27 (Sat-Mon) - The Woods, Sussex: Establish the tribe, bush-craft, campcraft, fire-craft, day games, night games
July 25-27 (Thurs-Sat) - The Moor, Devon: A 3-day expedition into wild Dartmoor, travelling and sleeping light, putting our skills to work
August 24-27 (Sat-Tue) - The Hills, Peak District: A more challenging 4-day expedition, stepping it up from the Dartmoor experience
October 19-21 (Sat-Mon) - The Forest, Sussex: Culmination event including a Fire Quest
And once it's all done, it's not necessarily all over. Graduates of the Wolf Pack programme (boys and girls) can choose to join the Wolf Pack All Stars mountain expedition in the Lake District in April the following year. This is a five-day trip for age 15+, that takes their Wolf Pack experience and applies it to a bigger, higher, epic mountain trip.
