Outdoor Practice

Our actions are unique both in preparation and staging.
With us, there is no “acid flow, glowing coals or swampland”. We are honest and 100% authentic, providing the reality and the nature to offer unique seminar facilities.
The actions are demanding, but they will not be overwhelmed. It is not our aim that the participants can overcome each other enormously or do things they really do not want. In none of the actions must each participate, one or the other can be omitted, the decisive factor is that the participants are involved and contribute.

Here we present a small portfolio of exercises, whereby, after 30 years in the outdoor seminar, we could probably write a book about exercises.

Depending on the moderation and nature of the reflection, these actions can be used differently.

We are looking forward to your direct request to office@outdoor-leadership.com and have them personally coordinated with you!

house building

A huge house, where everyone feels comfortable and have space.
Our house construction is a creative outdoor action for large groups, a team action where up to 200 people play an important and vital role.
Above all, groups, where the share of women is high, are very popular with house builders. It is about design and design and, of course, the appropriate implementation by the construction team.
Also the role of building supervision must not be missing, which will ultimately lead to the final acceptance.
All necessary utensils are provided by us. We are mobile with our equipment and can travel to any location.
This exercise is great when it comes to teambuilding and communication.

Application: seminars, events, sports
Group size: 5 – 200 people
Location: everywhere
Material: Rods, tarpaulins, tackle, spray, Nilon

Lumberjack Games

A regionally “authentic” team event in the Salzkammergut.
In the wood chopping games, 20m logs are climbed, among other things, with crampons, with tree-trunks sawn through with powerful tracts or even trees cut to a centimeter-precise target.
The wood chopper games are an excellent competition.
All material and tools are provided by us, delivered and built up.

Application: seminars, events, sports
Group size: 5 – 200 people
Location: meadow or forest
Material: saws, gloves, cutting blocks, trunks, tree branches

raft building

Overcoming the lake and building a raft in the team provides fun and excitement, but also promotes the cohesion of the group.
The raft construction has been tried and tested for years and is unmatched. Where else can a team (even large groups) demonstrate its creativity and cooperation with fun? The next test drive will show whether the raft carries all.
We provide all kinds of materials, lifejackets etc..
For safety, a boat with an electric motor accompanies the group.
Group sizes of up to 100 persons can be catered for (corresponding rafts are built).
As a venue, we prefer the Hallstatt lake in the Salzkammergut, but are mobile with our raft tools and can travel to any place.
Our product “Float-o-Mania” ensures more dynamism and competition.

Application: seminars, events, sports
Group size: 5 – 100 Pers.

The autobahn is the optimal team training for technically oriented teams.
We moderate in different variations according to your wishes.
This exercise is practicable everywhere. We come with the necessary equipment and materials to your seminar center and start.

The team is divided into the following groups:

  • the planning team

Outdoor Teamkitchen

Team cooking differently … with us everything takes place outside.
An active sports team is not always appropriate and desirable, but are you looking for a team-sponsoring group action?
This is about a given budget, division of labor, time management, everyone should be busy and ultimately a good result!
In our tree house, our self-catering lodge or our fire site in the grounds of the Natural Ropes Course you will find the ideal backdrop for this special Teamevent. Groups up to 20 participants can cook up perfectly in the self-catering hut, groups of up to 60 people can be accommodated in the rocky terrain of the Natural Rope Course and the adjacent tree house. We will organize the approach, presentation and cooking equipment.
This event offers an optimal alternative to climbing events and other sports events and is ideally suited as a content at workshops, seminars or simply as a teamevent. “Good succeed!”

Group size: 5 – 60 people
Location: everywhere
Material: Tables, sunshades, knives, budget, fire place, barbecue, …

Common goal achievement

A group is always very differently occupied, different skills, different strengths, different interests, etc. come together.
Nevertheless, the goal must be achieved together, everyone will play their own individual way, choose their own tactics.
For a seminar or event, we suggest a very impressive exercise for this purpose, well prepared, accompanied by short seminar content (flip-chart in the field) after a common pre-training (sniffing – practicing – strengthening) the Predigtstuhl summit, Planned and climbed. There are three different ways to choose from, these are managed and the summit reached at the same time by all groups.
Variant A: Normal path
Variant B: easy via ferrata
Variant C: Schluchtsteig – somewhat more difficult via ferrata

Application: seminars, events, sports
Group size: 5 – 100 Pers.
Location: Bad Goisern
Material: radio equipment, climbing harness, helmets, backpacks, sketching material

Natural Ropes Course

This cable system in Austria is unique in Austria in the midst of an impressive natural rock landscape and a view of the Dachstein, is still unsurpassed and is looking for its own.
Many challenges, such as a Hängebrücke, short climbing courses, abseiling, rope swing, flying fox tracks and much more await our participants. We can look after up to 80 people at the same time in the facility, of course, under the most stringent safety precautions.
It is not the sport here, but the common experience, seasoned with a shot of adventure. In the morning, first experiences at the high-rope course are collected in quiet surroundings, which requires a lot of trust and team spirit. After a common lunch at the cozy fire place (on request we organize an extensive buffet) in the afternoon we go to a nearby canyoning canyon or a fixed rope route to reach a summit.

Application: seminars, events, sports
Group size: 5 – 150 people
Location: Bad Goisern

Teambridge

Here we do not reveal how it works. It is an amazing and ingenious action where only the existing tools build a self-supporting bridge. The teambridge is suitable for various topics such as: Team, Communication, CIP.
As with all other exercises, we work with dimensions that are usable, we do not build examples, “do not rock”, but build the final product.

Application: seminars, events, sports
Group size: 5 – 100 Pers.
Location: everywhere
Material: bridges, components

Float o Mania

This format is the absolute enhancement of classic raft construction. More fun is not possible, under standing pressure the groups are forced to put the “competition” in the shade.
In several small groups, each team is required to build a stable raft. The best raft is judged according to specific criteria. Here, not only stability, but also design, creativity and spent “construction” time decide.
The subsequent race at the lake ultimately determines which team will be the winner of the competition.

Ideal for groups of 20 to 200 people.
For this event, we are flexible and also come to the lake of your choice.

Application: seminars, events, sports
Group size: 5 – 200 people
Location: Lake with ideal shore access (usually Lake Hallstatt)
Material: rods, barrels, ropes, tarpaulins, tackle, spray, nilon

Igloo – Overnight

We build igloos as part of snowshoe hikes, at company events as a team-sponsoring exercise or just for fun.
The construction of an igloo requires tricks and the corresponding “know-how”, which we gladly offer.

We provide the following knowledge:

  • Where is the best place?
  • What kind of snow cover construction do you need?
  • What tool do I need?

We will show you how to build a comfortable, safe snow house as quickly as possible.
Tea and a hot goulash soup will strengthen you on the tour.
In the USA, this kind of outdoor training is known as Wintercamping. With touring skis or snow boots, you cross the Dachstein plateau and use both natural terrain forms and technical equipment such as the GPS device for orientation. Slept in the self-made igloo in the super-warm sleeping bag. The dinner and the breakfast for the next day you prepare yourself in the igloo.
