Groups, Schools & Clubs
Our philosophy for our educational visits and in training and working with students is to inspire and teach them staple tools techniques that they can apply in every day life.
Being outdoors and around nature is beneficial with mental and physical wellbeing and the students grow in confidence. As part of our educational school trips, they will discover a fun and unique obstacle experience teaching teamwork, communication, mindset, focus, resilience, self-confidence, determination and friendship.
All abilities and ages 6 + years welcome, with all activities led by experienced, DBS-checked instructors in a safe, Learning Outside of the Classroom (LOTC) accredited environment.

We took a 240 year 7 students
I couldn’t recommend Nuclear Wild Forest enough! We took a 240 year 7 students and all the students LOVED the experience! It was great to see all the students really getting stuck in and using great teamwork to complete all the activities! The organisation from the Wild Forest team is amazing, getting all students involved even if they are feeling slightly nervous. The students really enjoyed all the activities, especially the water ones! It was a great time had by all!
Molly (St Albans Girls’ School)
The Nuclear Bunker was eye-opening and really interesting- and so secret that we almost walked past it!
Both students and staff had the most brilliant day at Wild Forest. This is our 5th year of bringing our new Year 12 cohort as a team building and bonding away day and it absolutely delivers on all counts. The staff are fantastic and the opportunities available to the students to push themselves to their muddiest limits both personally and working alongside their peers is brilliant to see!
High Ropes pushed our students to their highest limits- literally! Focus and determination was needed to navigate through the different levels.
Southend High School for Girls
This was our 4th consecutive year
This was our 4th consecutive year of taking all our Year 7s to Wild Forest and yet again it did not disappoint. We took just over 230 students to the Wild Forest with the aim to spend time with their new tutors and to build on their early friendships they have made. Sam makes the organisation so easy for us as a school and this is one of the reasons that I keep bringing back our students. Her team of staff we have got to know over the years and student safety and enjoyment is their priority at all times. There has been improvements in the provision of indoor space to have lunch afterwards which has really helped if the weather is rainy. Recently we have had older students talk about their best times at Mayflower and this trip is always featured in their highlights, the photos of their faces speaks for themselves!
Mayflower High – Year 7
The experience we had was phenomenal!
As part of our end of year activities we took our year 9 students to the Nuclear Wild Forest and participated in the obstacle course and death slide. Sam and her team were ready for us as soon as we arrived and from start to finish they were everything we could have asked for – professional, safe, firm but fair and most importantly, fun. Our students were challenged physically, emotionally and mentally. The feedback from ALL of our students was resoundingly positive and we will definitely be going back again.
