Too often, television shows and manuals distort the concept of survival, adventure, and bushcraft, offering entertainment instead of real knowledge. Such dramatized portrayals create misconceptions and leave people unprepared for the real challenges in nature.
At the ExtremeSurvive™ Survival School, nothing can replace practical experience. Our survival training is based on LACS – Logical Application in Critical Situations.
This is a realistic survival simulation program designed to teach genuine survival skills while minimizing risk.
In combination with the untouched wilderness of Istria, this approach provides an unforgettable nature experience, enriching you with authentic survival skills and a deep connection to nature.
