Food & Refreshments

Will food be provided during the course?

• Break times: Refreshments and light snacks such as fruit, tea, and coffee are provided.
• Lunch options:
• On-site lunch: Monday to Friday, we highly recommend ordering lunch at the Forest School. Their home-cooked meals are delicious and cost only 7 EUR per day. Lunch must be booked at least 3 working days before the training starts, and a vegetarian option is available.
• Thursday special: Preparing lunch is part of the course on Thursday, so that meal is included in the course price.
• Self-catering option: You’re welcome to bring your own prepared lunch each day.

Closer to the course date, we will send out a questionnaire to help you order your lunch easily.

 

What to Bring

What should I pack?

To ensure you have a comfortable and enjoyable time, please bring:

• Footwear: Hiking or sports shoes (note: the terrain is flat, no mountain hiking).
• Clothing: Comfortable outdoor clothes, sports attire, and waterproofs if rain is forecast.
• Weather essentials: A sun hat, sunglasses, or a cap depending on the weather.
• Swim gear: Swimwear and a towel.
• Everyday items: A water flask, and if you’re not ordering lunch with us, a meal box or other food-carrying equipment.
