Built on the success of 2025, Outback Wilderness Response is back in 2026 with our most practical and immersive Wilderness Medicine courses yet.

This is not classroom medicine.

Join OWR in the West MacDonnell Ranges for a hands-on wilderness medicine experience designed for doctors, paramedics, nurses, rescue workers, park rangers, tour guides, outdoor professionals and anyone who may need to manage real emergencies when help is a long way off.

Across the course, you will work through realistic remote-area scenarios involving:

Remote trauma and medical emergencies
Canyon rescue and difficult patient access
Search and rescue principles
Navigation and survival skills
Prolonged field care
Helicopter and evacuation considerations
Team leadership and decision-making under pressure
Working safely in heat, terrain, waterholes and isolated environments

Our 2025 courses showed just how powerful this style of training can be: real locations, real terrain, realistic pressure and practical skills that actually translate to the field.
