Exciting Year ahead for the Bear Grylls Team<\/p>\n

The Bear Grylls Survival Academy has been running courses on the Cowdray Estate since 2017 and 2019 promises to be another exciting year for Bear’s team at Cowdray. The Estate was chosen for its varied terrain, including dense woodland, a long stretch of the River Rother, lakes and steep difficult ground.\u00a0Students find themselves in the thick of it, navigating, foraging, exploring and surviving amidst the picturesque backdrop of the South Downs. The number of courses offered by Bear\u2019s team has steadily grown over time. They appeal to explorers of all ages, with the family course proving popular.<\/p>\n

In addition, the Primal Survival Family Adventure<\/a> is an ideal bonding experience for every member of the family, parents and children, teaching both how to engage in Bear\u2019s own ethos of \u2018Self-Rescue\u2019 over two days. Myriad trials await those who undertake these programs, from river crossings to reliable knots, from shelter building to snare-setting.<\/p>\n
