How to make a withy


Withies are a type of fastening made from the outer fibres of tall, straight stems such as hazel.  They’re simple to make and very effective.

Depending on the time of year, we look at how to make a withy on our 5 Day Bushcraft course.

You can see photos from all of our courses on our Facebook page.
