Camp Cooking

Have you ever wondered how to cook food if we didn’t have gas, electricity and all our modern cooking equipment? Get back to basics and learn how to build and light the perfect cooking campfire, make and cook traditional damper (bread) over your open campfire. The best part is that you get to eat your toasty warm damper at the end with a variety of condiments like honey or maple syrup.

Bread not your thing? How about come and bake cheesy bacon jacket potatoes on the fire instead. Yum!

Want to challenge yourself even further? We can provide you the complete campfire cooking experience where you learn to cook a whole three course meal over the fire. We make a savoury damper for entrée, sausages and roast vegetables for main and a banana boat or baked cinnamon apple for dessert.

Now we’re camp cooking!

These activities give a combined challenge of tricky physical obstacles with mental problem solving such as our spider's web element, get your whole team past all without touching the web but there is a catch!

Will you tackle the big point earners first or aim to get more small point codes but aim for quantity?
