OWR’s 3-day Wilderness Medicine Course (CSE-A) is a field-intense clinical and survival training program delivered in Chewings Ranges and the West MacDonnell National Park, built for school groups and remote clinicians. Participants train core wilderness trauma and first-aid principles, navigation by SMEAC, and environmental risk management while hiking and camping in remote terrain. The course culminates in structured search, casualty care, and evacuation decision-making scenarios, delivering real-world skills with a blunt philosophy—train where others can’t reach.

OWR’s 7-Day Advanced SAR – Medical Remote Operator Course (CSE-D) is a hard-earned, no-comfort remote medical and search & rescue immersion delivered in Australia’s red centre. Led by seasoned wilderness and aeromedical paramedics, participants train MARCH critical care, cross-country search planning, navigation, casualty packaging, and prolonged field operations in gorges, ridgelines and desert ranges. The course culminates in technical canyon rescue modules and a coordinated rotary evacuation finale, forged under OWR’s uncompromising ethos—7 days. Harsh terrain. Real consequence. Train where others can’t reach.

OWR’s 3-Day Canyoning Trek (CSE-E) is a foot-led wilderness expedition forged in Central Australia’s iconic gorge networks. Guided by expert canyon and wilderness leaders, participants combine route-finding, cross-country hiking approaches, multi-pitch abseils (up to 30m lines), slippery water-hole crossings, slot-canyon progression, and sustained boulder traverses through remote canyon systems. Each day layers practical navigation skills using topographic mapping, real-world terrain assessment, and teamwork-driven movement from grassy creek beds to tight canyon corridors, sustained scrambles, and deliberate ridge-line access points. Delivered with structured safety oversight, contingency planning, and environmental risk awareness, the trek blends authentic adventure with purposeful training—moving with control, thinking ahead, and operating confidently beyond the track.

OWR’s Outdoor Adventure Rescue & Survival – 5 Day School Hike Program (CSE-S) is a purpose-built youth wilderness experience delivered in Central Australia’s iconic desert trail systems. Designed for students in Years 9–12, the course blends hiking, bush survival, first-aid fundamentals, teamwork, and light technical rescue problem-solving under the supervision of qualified wilderness medical staff and outdoor leaders.

Participants train practical self-reliance and emergency response skills including navigation with topographic maps, survivor bandaging, splinting, shelter construction, casualty movement, water safety, and remote communication drills with Iridium oversight. The program finishes with a large, school-focused integrated scenario where students coordinate a bush rescue response and medical care plan, demonstrating confidence, leadership, and safe decision-making.
