At Wilderness Escape Outdoor Adventures, we believe resilience isn’t something taught from a textbook. It’s something discovered, through challenge, self-belief and real-world experience.
Wilderness Escape has been leading the way as the state’s largest and most trusted outdoor education provider in South Australia for over 33 years, offering unforgettable and educational adventures that shape character and life skills.
Our adventure-based experiential learning programs help children build resilience in the most meaningful way possible, by living it. From Primary through to SACE levels, our school programs take children out of the classroom and into nature, where they are encouraged to take on responsibility, adapt to the unexpected and find confidence in their own capabilities.
Whether it’s developing surf safety skills on the coast, collaborating with peers in the Human Knot team challenge or carrying their pack on a multi-day hike, every activity is a chance to grow stronger from the inside out. This is where resilience comes to life, not through instruction, but through experience.
Children are challenged in healthy, supported ways. They make decisions, face setbacks, find solutions and learn that persistence pays off. It’s here they discover they are more capable than they realised. Resilience isn’t a lesson, it’s a process. And adventure is the perfect classroom.
We also run school holiday programs that continue this journey outside of term time. These experiences, like rock climbing, kayaking and bush survival skills, are designed to be fun, safe and growth focused, giving children of ages opportunities to play, explore and strengthen their sense of self.
Whether your children are just beginning to test their limits or are ready for leadership level challenges, Wilderness Escape offers transformative experiences that last long after the tents are packed away.
What children walk away with:
- A deeper connection to nature, and to themselves.
- Real world problem solving & decision-making skills.
- A mindset of adaptability, courage & grit.
- Improved emotional regulation in stressful situations.
- A deeper connection to nature, & to themselves.
