Outdoor First Aid Training on April 10, 2027 in Höhenkirchen-Siegertsbrunn

Connected to nature, safe, and confident outdoors with children Children want to get outside into nature: discover animals and plants, climb trees, play in the mud, and experience the world with all their senses. But as education professionals, we are often faced with a mountain of questions: What about our duty to supervise and liability in the forest? How do we deal with ticks, bathroom breaks, and hygiene? How should we answer the many questions children ask? How can we foster a truly deep connection with nature? In this two-day professional development course for educators, you will gain genuine insight into wilderness education, along with the essential background knowledge.

Parent Day: More connection with nature for you and your family Would you like to feel more connected to nature, both for yourself and your children—but find that there is too little room for it in the everyday life of a modern nuclear family, with its constant lack of time? How can you nurture a stronger connection with nature again? And how can you invite your children to join you on this journey? Connecting with nature means more than simply being outdoors. It is also about behaving more naturally again—less stress, more moments in the here and now. For thousands of years, our ancestors lived in deep connection with their community and the wilderness around them. On this day, we will explore together what we can take from this ancient knowledge and bring into our modern everyday lives. This training day for parents offers you a practical introduction to nature-based education—a foundation for bringing more connection with nature into your own life and that of your family.

Come home to yourself – outdoors in nature We leave everyday life and the hustle and bustle of the city behind and take a whole day for ourselves. Outdoors, among roots and leaves, we gather new strength and mindfully connect with the living world around us. In everyday life, the truly important questions are easily overlooked. Here, we make space for them—for example: What truly matters to me? What am I grateful for? What are my needs? What are my strengths? Through reflection and sharing within the group, you will find your own answers. You will discover how to make more room for your needs, take good care of yourself, and appreciate yourself. The exercises and perspectives of wilderness education guide us toward a special kind of awareness and mindfulness. Our nervous system developed in nature—here, it can find calm and settle particularly well. This day is more than a short break. Find out what self-care means to you personally and gather ideas for making more room for it in everyday life—in ways that suit your resources and possibilities.

An accident in the middle of nature – what now?  Our outdoor first aid course prepares you thoroughly for emergencies in the wilderness. You’ll learn to act quickly and safely with limited resources and under realistic conditions – whether dealing with a cut, an allergic shock, or a serious fall. The course is for anyone who spends time in nature with groups, children, or on their own – for example, as a wilderness educator, teacher, parent, or outdoor guide. Through practical exercises by day and night, you’ll learn not only life-saving first aid measures, but also how to stay calm, take responsibility, and guide others safely through a crisis. You’ll feel more confident – for your own sake and for those who count on you.

Hiking, walking the dog, horseback riding, cycling, hunting, foraging for mushrooms, jogging, walking, forest bathing—with a forest kindergarten, a wilderness school, or as a forestry worker... there are many reasons why you might be outdoors, whether alone or with a group. Can you provide first aid if it takes a long time for professional emergency services to reach the scene of an accident? Alongside theory and practical sessions, you’ll be assigned to rescue teams for various first-aid scenarios. Through realistic accident simulation (RUD), you’ll get to “rescue” and provide “initial care” to injured people spontaneously and unexpectedly—in other words, in a realistic setting. Over the course of two days, you’ll immerse yourself in first aid and learn about and understand the medical background as well as the practical skills. Your personal outdoor background will also be incorporated into the course.

An outdoor first aid seminar, NOT JUST FOR HUNTERS! But hunters are exposed to particular dangers from firearms, sharp blades, falls while building hunting stands, and diseases transmitted by animals. Group hunts in particular can quickly become dangerous. Tragic hunting accidents, some with fatal outcomes, occur time and again. Many deaths can be prevented through prompt medical action. In an emergency, stress levels rise and rational thinking is impaired. That is why, following the principle “Treat first what kills first!”, we use a standardized approach that enables safe action even in challenging situations. Learn in this first aid course for hunters how to provide help safely and effectively in outdoor emergencies. This course is recognized as “training to become an occupational first aider” and is certified accordingly.
