About Green Explorers

Listed Under Family and Kids Events / Days Out Events / Learning Events / Nature Events / Outdoor Events / Workshops Events

We visit a different site in and around Edinburgh to explore and enjoy time outdoors whilst learning outdoor skills such as tracking, shelter building, fire lighting, whittling, foraging and outdoor cooking as well as having fun playing environmental games or just chilling in a hammock!

Come and meet new friends and learn new skills with award-winning Edinburgh charity The Green Team.
