We will learn…
Observing the surrounding environment and interpreting all the details that we usually ignore to find the right direction.
Footprints of animals or people, mosses, plants and sounds that we usually do not notice will instead be our best allies to orient us in a hostile environment and lead us to a safe scenario.
We will learn to resist and procure vital resources, how to look for water, how to treat it and make it drinkable. We will discover how to warm up safely, find materials for bait and fire ignition systems with circumstantial techniques.
Finally, we will learn techniques for building emergency shelters using what nature allows us, and much more that you will discover during the activities.
Throughout the excursion, the Guide will follow the group teaching concepts, answering your questions and creating plausible scenarios where you will be asked to find a solution to survive in the best possible way.
The various activities of the day (s), the itineraries and the skills learned may vary according to the weather conditions, the preparation of the group and any seasonal prohibitions. The guide reserves the right to plan activities at his own discretion to ensure the safety of guests and the surrounding environment.
All activities will take place in areas previously designated and well connected to the main escape routes.

The instructor
Our guide: Sacha Bachini
I was born in Pisa and since I was a child I have developed a passion for nature and outdoor activities. During my career I have practiced different disciplines and worked in various environments, from outdoor activities to medical rescue. Finally, I decided to focus my energies in the survival sector, which contains all the experiences gained in the course of my life. I became a professional instructor by acquiring specific certifications and I founded the SURV-TAC SURVIVAL Association, where I work full time with the aim of transmitting to others the skills I have learned and developed during the years of work in the field.
