In setting the standard for the outdoor industry in Malaysia, the Wilderness Centre ensures that it has an active role with other Outdoor Industry providers and organizations. We wish to share our knowledge and standards to help build Malaysia’s outdoor industry and maintain the safety, quality and standards to an international level.
Using a variety of mediums and activities, participants are encouraged to further develop their self confidence, leadership skills, teamwork, initiative, resilience and compassion whilst building new friendships and having fun.
OUR APPROACH
Outdoor Education is about challenging ourselves mentally, physically and emotionally and reflecting back on our experiences to see how we can improve in the future.
By making mistakes we can learn how to do it better next time. This philosophy is based on the Experiential Learning Cycle which is used extensively in all of our activities. This skill is then transferred into our everyday lives to help us grow within our own communities.
Being a participant in one of our programs is about “Challenge by Choice”. We offer you the chance to overcome personal fears if you feel you are ready to do so. All of our instructors are trained to encourage and support participants and allow them to develop at their own pace. Being involved in our programs is an amazing experience, and one that lasts a lifetime. You will go home feeling energized, confident and prepared to take on life’s challenges. The memories will last forever and change the way you see yourself and the world. So, take a short break from your daily routine and join us on a journey of self-discovery in one of the most spectacular islands in Malaysia: Langkawi, (awarded Geopark by UNESCO).
