Wild Weekend 'South' is a focused, communal retreat that brings together women for a mix of outdoor skills, relaxation and inspiration: camping or shared bunk accommodation, yoga and meditation, bushcraft and a rotating programme of talks and personal-development workshops at an outdoor centre run by Love Her Wild CIC.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE PROGRAM

A pick-and-choose curriculum of skills and talks

The weekend runs concurrent sessions—yoga and meditation, bushcraft skills, inspiration talks and outdoor personal-development workshops—so you can curate a schedule that suits rest, learning or hands-on practice.

THE SETTING

Camp or cosy shared bunks among trees

You can pitch a tent in flat, tree-fringed spaces or book a shared bunk in camping pods (maximum four per pod); there are shared toilet and shower facilities and communal kitchen space where hot water, tea and coffee are available.

THE COMMUNITY

An inclusive, mostly solo-attendee crowd

Most attendees arrive alone and are welcomed into a friendly, inclusive group—this is an event run at cost by a nonprofit, designed to be accessible and to foster new friendships among women.

What the day feels like

How the weekend feels

The rhythm is deliberate: arrive on Friday evening to set up camp or settle into a pod, choose from overlapping workshops and talks through Saturday and part of Sunday, and leave at lunchtime on Sunday—all framed around informal communal spaces, practical bushcraft sessions and restorative movement.
