The Wilderness Guide Training program is an extensive and well-rounded training experience that goes beyond just acquiring outdoor survival skills. Throughout this 5 to 6-week course, you will gain technical expertise in leadership, outdoor survival, wildlife awareness, first aid in remote areas and navigation techniques by immersing in a range of ecozones, providing you with authentic, real-life situations that will truly test and enhance your capabilities.
The course has a core training of 3 consecutive weeks, and three elective modules to choose from based in different key study areas (Cold environments, Arid environments and Wildlife & Positive Guiding in Temperate forests) followed by a practical period.
You will also become part of our growing international network, the EWES Forest. This network offers opportunities for both professional and personal growth, fostering connections with like-minded individuals who share your passion for nature and wilderness adventures. Are you ready to embark on this transformative journey with us and become a wilderness guide?
Besides preparing and training on your hard skills, a positive learning curve and developing your soft skills as a natural leader are key, becoming aware of and conscious about your personal limits and growth. An open mind, open will, open heart together with a reasonable physical shape are fundamental requisites to be able to join our training.
As part of our values, EWES enables regeneration through authentic connection with life and the world that surrounds us, including environment, wildlife and communities.
