Wilderness Medicine Education

Crossing Latitudes is proud to sponsor NOLS Wilderness Medicine courses all over the US, Scandinavia and Europe. Combining theory and practice in the great outdoors regardless of weather conditions.

Our instructors bring diverse expertise and hands-on experience in the wilderness and medicine. 

In Scandinavia we have taught NOLS Wilderness Medicine courses since 2000. Over 6000 participants have taken a Crossing Latitudes sponsored NOLS first aid or first responder course. Many of our first aid courses are booked by universities, outdoor educational programs, outdoor adventure organisations, search and rescue, as well as scout groups.

Come prepared for wet, muddy, cold or hot environments. If you work or recreate in the wilderness, these courses are a must!
