OUTDOOR EXTREME www.outdoor-extreme.co.uk Based in south-west Scotland, this company runs courses in bushcraft and outdoor survival. It even holds courses on the Hebridean island of Taransay, so you can feel like a Castaway. The course is suitable for hill walkers, ramblers or anyone who just wants to be prepared.
WILDWOOD BUSHCRAFT www.wildwoodbushcraft.com This course starts at Ullapool and moves to Loch Sionnascaig, spending three days there in idyllic camps. There are plenty of chances to enjoy shellfish and
edible seaweed, then a portage (carrying canoes) across to Loch Veyatie, where a couple of days are spent exploring the dramatic terrain and bushcraft resources.

BUSHCRAFT ADVENTURES www.bushcraftventures.co.uk Based in the Cairngorms National Park (one of Europe's last wildernesses), this company offers a range of survival and bushcraft courses, including campcraft and cookery, roots skills and tracking.

ISLAY BUSHCRAFT www.islaybushcraft.co.uk This five-star company based on Islay offers the opportunity to sleep in caves, as part of courses that combine bushcraft skills with fishing and biking. This is the only bushcraft school in Britain to include sleeping in caves in its prospectus.

GUIDING ON SKYE, www.guidingonskye.co.uk Since 1995, George Yeomans has concentrated on the Cuillins in Skye – and built up an intimate knowledge of these difficult Munros and classic scrambling routes. Couple this with a keen interest in natural history and his knowledge and skills as a qualified bushcraft and survival instructor will expand and enhance your mountain/island days.
