Highlights
Outing Highlights
Open‑fire technique and creative camp cooking
Meals are prepared over an open fire on site, using live flame to cook grilled chicken, smoked sausages and other specialty items that you might not expect to find in the woods.
A mix of spicy, smoked and vegetarian options
The menu includes Peri Peri Chicken Stack Burgers, BBQ platters (BBQ chicken, pork and smoked sausage), venison burgers (availability by request) and a vegetarian mushroom burger option—served with sides such as baby potatoes tossed in wild garlic butter.
Evening meals framed by forest sounds
Dinners are staged outdoors in the forest around the Tipi Adventures site, letting the sound of the river and birdsong enhance the sensory experience of cooking and eating by firelight.
