“Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.”
Albert Einstein

Welcome to Bush Lore ... Australia's Leading Survival, Tracking and Bushcraft School

  

We offer outdoor programs that impart life-saving wilderness survival skills and facilitate a reconnection to the natural world and some of its mystery.

Through the medium of practical hands-on training in bushcraft, wilderness survival, field tracking and observation skills we can learn to further appreciate and expand our understanding of the natural world.

We also provide training in search and rescue tracking, disaster survival, urban survival, survival self-defence, self-reliance, sustainability, team building, leadership and personal development.


What makes us different to other organisations teaching Survival and Tracking Skills?

Well we just don't teach you the techniques and tricks of the trade ... we show you the philosophy that underpins engagement with the natural world! We show you that its not a case of contesting against nature, rather a process of working with natural systems. We believe that this fosters a sense of true 'Resilience'.

We show you how to make your experience meaningful to other parts of your life rather than something you tuck away in your back pocket for someday when you might get lost in the bush! We show you the doorway to a new world of curiousity, exploration and personal freedom that most are not aware of.

Who we are?

Bush Lore Australia is a social enterprise that strives to remain a self-sufficient, socially minded organisation. We are a non-loss business that reinvests modest profits into wildlife conservation projects and the expansion of the organisation's reach, products and services.

Our purpose is to breach the increasing knowledge barrier that exists between the natural environment and the wider population using experiential learning environments to foster understanding and empathy.
