Welcome to
The Forest Ridge!
Please read all the information below before your visit.
Any questions, please get in touch: 07804495089
Health and Safety
The Forest Ridge is a rural, off-grid site. While we do our best to make the space welcoming and safe, all guests are responsible for their own wellbeing and should arrive suitably prepared for the conditions.
Please bring appropriate clothing and footwear for the weather, along with sunscreen, hats, waterproofs, drinking water and any medication or personal items you may require.
During warmer weather, please stay hydrated, seek shade when needed and take regular breaks.
Ticks are present throughout much of the Scottish countryside, including Forest Ridge. We recommend wearing long trousers, especially when walking through long grass, checking yourself, children and pets for ticks after your visit, and removing any ticks promptly and correctly.
A basic first aid kit is available in the toilet shed near the yurt. However, guests should arrive fully self-sufficient and bring any medications, supplies or specialist equipment they may need.
Please be mindful of uneven ground, tree roots, muddy areas, open water, tools, fires, wildlife and changing weather conditions. Parents and guardians remain responsible for the safety and supervision of children in their care.
Parking and Campervans
There is parking available on site - use the location link above.
Upon arrival, do not drive beyond the yurt when the ground is wet, as this can damage the land and vehicles may become stuck.
If parking on the land is unavailable, there is also a small roadside car park nearby. We use this for overflow.
Click here for the directions to the overflow car park location.
During wet weather, vehicles must remain in the first part of the field (before the yurt) or use the overflow roadside car park.
Car sharing is encouraged wherever possible to help reduce our impact on the land and minimise the number of vehicles on site.
If you are bringing a campervan or staying overnight, please inform the event host in advance, along with the number of people attending. You’ll need to be fully self-sufficeient for the duration of your stay.
Please note that there is no electric hook-up available on site.
Water
Our water comes directly from a natural underground source.
Some members filter the water and others use it untreated, however we recommend that guests:
Bring 2 litres of drinking water per day, or
Use a suitable water filter, or
Boil and cool water before drinking
There is a standpipe and tap available near the yurt, please use sparingly.
Food and Felix the Fire Pit
We’ll have a selection of light bites and table of communal food for the end of the event, please bring any food and drinks for yourself or to share.
Felix is the main communal fire pit and gathering space at Forest Ridge in the centre of the field.
Please leave the area clean and tidy, take all rubbish and recycling home with you, and be mindful of fire safety at all times.
There are usually two BBQs available, one being a plant-based.
Please use all cooking facilities responsibly and help keep the space welcoming for everyone.
Pets
If you would like to bring a furry friend, please let us know in advance. Dogs must remain on a lead at all times and be supervised throughout your visit.
Please clean up waste responsibly, keep away from paths, growing areas and gathering spaces.
We ask all guests to be mindful that there are young children and wildlife on site, and to help us maintain a calm and respectful environment for everyone.
For some organised activities and meals, we may ask that pets remain in vehicles, campervans or other suitable spaces. Check with the host before arrival.
Toilet Facilities
A communal compost toilet is available in the shed next to the yurt.
Basic handwashing facilities and hand sanitiser are provided.
Please leave the space clean and tidy for the next person and follow the instructions displayed inside.
