10am - 12pm or 1pm - 3pm

Where?

We are based in private woodland near Titchfield, along the road to Wickham. The exact meet point details will be provided after checkout.

What to bring?

We will be outside the whole time so you need to be warm and comfortable. Remember that, while it's starting to warm up, it is still quite chilly in the shade of the forest. Here is an idea of what to wear:

• Comfy durable trousers which you don’t mind getting muddy 

• One top, long sleeved

• At least one warm jumper or fleece

• 2 pairs of socks, (at least one set of warm socks and one in backpack)

• Sturdy walking boots

• Waterproof trousers and coat if it's raining

• Spare trousers in backpack

• Insect repellent (if desired) applied before arrival

You also need to bring in your backpack:

• Plate, bowl, cup and cutlery (Plastic or enamel camping kits are best)

• Any medications you need (e.g. epipens, inhalers, etc.)
