And Abroad
OVERSEAS STUDY TOUR
Every two years, the RFS organises a Study Tour overseas. These range from the Pacific Seaboard of North America across to China and from Iceland down to Patagonia. The visits are laid on in co-operation with foresters and landowners in the host country - so we learn about local life from the inside and reach places normal tourists would not. Recent tours were to:
- 1993 South Africa
- 1995 Bulgaria
- 1997 Sweden
- 1999 Argentina
- 2001 Vosges
- 2003 British Columbia
- 2005 Catalunya
- 2008 North East Turkey
These tours are for RFS members; visit the Join Us page for membership information.
Local Divisions run shorter trips to continental Europe and the Republic of Ireland as well.
