There’s a reason why the British Special Forces favour Dartmoor as a training ground for their elite recruits – as one of the UK’s most hostile environments, it can test the mettle of even the most intrepid soldier. Our Survive the Moors course is a three-day survival experience training in the same natural arena that will challenge the boundaries of your strength, courage and wit.

“Survive to fight, don’t fight to survive,” as they say in the military.
