Turn Wild

Our outdoor experiences extend beyond providing a mere outdoor escape – we're passionate about helping you develop outdoor skills whilst exploring new cultures and ecosystems. Your journey from confident day hiker to resilient multi-day expedition team member fuels our purpose and what we're wholeheartedly dedicated to advancing. At Turn Wild, we want you to get the most from your exploration by truly connecting with nature, exploring new remote ecosystems, and experiencing different cultures whilst knowing as much as possible has been done to preserve the environment.

We use personalised variations of this development methodology to help businessmen seeking a new kind of challenge, youth teams eager to forge unbreakable bonds, and those bravely battling addiction, change their lives. All this whilst considering sustainable adventure travel at all times.

Turn Wild has been featured in the Financial Times, our guides on Good Morning Britain giving hiking in heat advice, and the Evening Standard on our work helping those battling drug and homeless issues. Turn Wild runs an expedition project for disadvantaged students in a London School and runs personal development outdoor breaks for those battling addictions for Turning Point Charity in London and DAWS.

Turn Wild can also do bespoke trips and tailor trek itineraries for private or corporate groups.

If you would like to chat with a Turn Wild guide to see which trip is best suited for you, please email ian@turnwild.com to arrange a call with one of our guides.
