Team Away Days

Rewild Your Team

Rewild Your Team

Rewilding is all about letting go, allowing dynamic, natural processes to unfold and embracing the unexpected. For teams, it offers a powerful way to think out of the box, unlock opportunities, and reconnect with nature, purpose and one another.

Learn the Rewilding Way

On a Team Away Day at Knepp, your group will enter a landscape heaving with life in one of Britain’s most daring rewilding projects. Offering an experience as far away from the office as you can get, this is an invitation to learn about natural processes, think holistically and build team spirit through the inspiring, hopeful lessons of trusting in nature.

Your host for the day will be one of Knepp’s experts, bringing specialist knowledge and insights into our trailblazing work.

Reviving corporate teams through nature

Our Team Away Days offer corporate groups the chance to rewild yourself and embrace a different way of thinking. Based at Knepp in West Sussex, an Away Day introduces your team to the principles of rewilding, of letting go, through an immersive experience of the Wildland.

Following a brief welcome and presentation on the unique approach that has brought life back to Knepp, you’ll head out on a guided walking safari in search of free-roaming longhorn cattle, Exmoor ponies, Tamworth pigs, red and fallow deer, and evidence of beaver activity. These animals are the drivers of our rebounding ecosystem, helping shape habitats and create new opportunities for wildlife. Released from intensive agriculture, this depleted, polluted, unproductive piece of land has sprung back to life in just 20 years, providing a haven for some of our rarest birds and other endangered creatures. 

Back at The Gathering, our old grain store, we serve a seasonal, organic grazing platter lunch from Knepp Wilding Kitchen. The rest of the afternoon is free for your team to gather together, reflect on the experience and enjoy the Wildland at leisure. We also offer the opportunity to spend the afternoon volunteering with some hands-on physical activities as an optional extra.

Throughout the day, you’ll connect with nature in a way that is scarcely possible in other parts of the UK. You’ll leave with fresh ideas, renewed energy, and practical inspiration for applying the principles of natural regeneration, resilience and rewilding to your own organisation.

Our standard package accommodates up to 36 guests. For larger corporate Away Days, please contact our events team to discuss your requirements.

“Our time at Knepp Estate was nothing short of inspiring. Experiencing Knepp first-hand sparked fresh ideas and renewed energy across our group. From understanding the impact of small, thoughtful interventions to seeing large-scale biodiversity in action, it reinforced what’s possible when nature is given the space to thrive.”

Safaris

A guided walking safari is at the heart of our Team Away Days at Knepp. Led by one of our expert safari guides, your team will explore the rewilded estate and learn how free-roaming animals, natural processes and habitat recovery are shaping the Wildland.

It’s an inspiring outdoor team building experience that gives groups time in nature, space to think differently and a direct insight into one of the UK’s leading rewilding projects.

Catering is provided by Knepp’s Wilding Kitchen, with seasonal grazing platters served after your morning safari.

Menus are informal, plentiful and rooted in Knepp’s pasture-to-plate ethos, using organic ingredients sourced from our land wherever possible. Dietary requirements can be discussed with our team when planning your corporate away day.
