Woodlands that allow the practice of Bushcraft

[Alex101]

Hi All,

Does anyone know of any woodlands/forests in Suffolk that, with permission, allow the practice of bushcraft to include making fires?

Thanks
Alex

Not sure about full blown 'bushcraft' Alex but here's a list of campsites that allow open fires. It may give you a start point for further searches.

Hi Boys

I am in Suffolk just near Ipswich. I have always though it is best to ask for forgiveness than it is permission, if know what I mean

Depends which bit. Permissions are very hard to come by.
There's lots of forest but don't know of a dedicated area. If there is I like to know too! Could hang with the Norfolk / Norwich crowd if you are in North of county? See their thread.
Otherwise here's a campsite that allows fires and has a wooded area where you can swing a hammock etc....

If there are a few of us in Suffolk, how about starting our own group?

I am pretty new to the site so I cannot send or receive pm but I like the way you think I know a good few guys who venture out into the wilds quite a bit even this time of the year.

Rumcelt: You do have limited privilages until you have posted 10 times but you can send and receive 1 PM. Do three more posts.

Ello folks, new here but looking to get into wild camping and bushcraft and such, and im also in Suffolk (Ipswich).

Going to hopefully be checking out tunstall and rendlesham a bit this week if i can get a lift up there, Just got myself Gransfors Bruks, and a folding saw and want to try make myself a shelter!

If theres any groups on facebook or here for others around the suffolk area please point me in the right direction!

Hi all

I was going out and about Sat to Sunday, but thought better of it because of the amount of rain we have had. Now it starring to dry out because temp is dropping but I dont have the time, this known as sods law lol.

Sounds like a good idea Rum, we should all post and see if there is already a group somewhere, or start a new one!!

Hi Grom,

There are several of us in Suffolk Rumcelt came up with the idea of perhaps getting a few of us together and I am willing to try to take this forward so any interested please contact me.

Cheers

Hi all

I put a thread up a some time back, I had 1 or 2 responses. But it looks like there are a few more now so we can see if we can give it a go, if folks want to?

Count me in.

Good idea!
Is someone going to start a thread along the lines of Norfolk and Norwich thread?
Then we can all communicate there.

 

[Grom]

Yeah sounds interesting for sure! Do it! If by a thread on here or a group on facebook or something, alls good.
