Making wicker backpacks and carrying baskets
About this Course
We invite you to weave a Kiepe (a backpack made of willow) or a handled basket during this basket-weaving weekend. We have four days in which you can learn the basics of round basket weaving. You will create your own “nature backpack” or carrying basket using compostable materials and few tools. Weaving is done with unpeeled willow

Reviews
WildNet.Earth Review Policy
Each rating result ranges from 1 to 10. The overall rating for a course is calculated by adding up all the ratings submitted and dividing them by the number of ratings. We use a weighted system: more recent ratings have a greater influence on the overall result.
Participants can also submit sub-ratings for important course areas – such as organizer communication, course management, content & learning progress, procedure & implementation, venue, catering, and accommodation. Sub-ratings and overall ratings are assigned independently of each other and are not necessarily directly related.
Participants can submit a review if they have taken part in a course via WildNet.Earth – even if they have not completed the course in full. In addition, participants can verify themselves and also write reviews even if they have not booked via WildNet.Earth. Changes to reviews that have already been submitted can only be made via WildNet customer service.
To prevent bias, WildNet.Earth uses processes that identify fake or unreliable reviews. Such content will be deleted and measures may be taken against those responsible. Suspicious posts can be reported to customer service by anyone at any time.
We publish both positive and negative reviews, unless they contain or refer to:
- Politically sensitive content
- Advertising
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive data (e.g., phone numbers, email addresses)
- Insults, obscene language, sexualized content, hate speech, discrimination, threats, or violence
- Spam or obviously fake content
- Identity theft
- Any violation of our rating guidelines
Guidelines and standards for reviews
These guidelines ensure that reviews on WildNet.Earth remain relevant, fair, and respectful—without restricting freedom of expression.
Contributions should have a clear connection to the course or experience and help other participants make an informed decision. Personal attacks, religious or political statements, advertising, or support requests (to the organizer or WildNet.Earth) do not belong in reviews and will be removed.
Posts must be suitable for a global audience. Obscenities (even in creative writing) and content that contains hate, discrimination, violence, sexual depictions, or illegal activities are not permitted.
All content must be authentic, independent, and unbiased. Organizers and their partners may not create reviews on behalf of their participants or offer incentives for reviews. Attempts at manipulation (e.g., negative reviews against other organizers) will not be tolerated.
Personal data of third parties may not be published. Copyrights must be observed—published content, especially images, may only be used if the corresponding rights have been obtained.
The opinions expressed are solely those of participants and course providers. WildNet.Earth accepts no liability for reviews or responses. WildNet.Earth acts as a distributor, not as a publisher of content.
Reviews are sorted according to recency and other relevance criteria (e.g., language, reviews with text, etc.). Additional sorting options may be available.

About the Organizer
Natur- und Wildnisschule Teutoburger Wald
Mit unserem umfangreichen Kursprogramm für verschiedenste Zielgruppen gehören wir zu den frühen Pionieren von Wildnisschule. Freude, Lust und Neugier sind die treibenden und verbindenden Kräfte für junge und alte Menschen bei uns seit 1997.
Die von uns angewandte Lehr- und Lernmethode Coyote Teaching hat ihren Ursprung bei Menschen, die seit unzähligen Generationen draußen leben und diese Methode erfolgreich praktizierten. Sie ist eine sehr wirkungsvolle Weitergabe von Wissen und wir garantieren nachhaltige “Aha-Momente”.
In Deutschland führten wir 2003 die erste Weiterbildung Wildnispädagogik ein.Die Vielfalt an Wildnisthemen sensibilisieren für das Natürliche und Einfache, schärfen Wahrnehmungsfähigkeiten, laden zu Abenteuern vor der Haustüre ein, verbinden mit Natur und stärken die Persönlichkeit. Sie werden zu wertvollen Begleitern des alltäglichen Lebens.
Viele Einstiege in Wildnisschule sind möglich: für Interessierte und Neulinge bieten wir unterschiedlichste Wochenend-Wildnisthemen an sowie den Wildnisbasiskurs und die Wildnispädagogik I. welche die fundierte Grundlage für weitere Lehrgänge und Aufbaukurse bilden.
Seit 2007 bieten wir in unserem Wildnismentorprogramm Ausbildungen zum Wildnislehrer und Wildnismentor an (Vorraussetzung: Wildnispädagogik I).
Herzlich willkommen!
