About Outdoor Educators
Outdoor Educators, based in Hilton near Pietermaritzburg in KwaZulu-Natal, has been developing human potential through experiential learning since 2002. We specialise in team building, outdoor education programs, leadership development, and personal growth—using the outdoors and adventure as powerful tools for transformation. Our approach is simple yet impactful: learning through experience. We believe that people learn best when they are actively involved.
As our philosophy states: “If you tell me, I will listen. If you show me, I will see. But if you let me experience, I will truly understand.” Through fun and practical activities, participants not only enjoy themselves but also gain meaningful insights, grow closer as a group, and develop critical life skills such as communication, teamwork, and leadership. Our programs are designed for a wide range of clients—including corporate teams, schools, churches, and community organisations.
Each experience is tailored to your group’s specific goals, ensuring relevant, lasting benefits. We are flexible and collaborative, always welcoming your input during program development. While our foundation is built on Christian values, we work inclusively with all groups, respecting diverse backgrounds and beliefs. Safety is a top priority. We keep group sizes small to ensure personal attention and safe facilitation.
Our skilled team, led by Dirk Calitz—a seasoned professional with over 30 years of experience in people development—is committed to excellence, integrity, and making each event unforgettable. Whether you're looking to build stronger teams, develop confident leaders, or simply enjoy a day of outdoor fun, Outdoor Educators is ready to walk the journey with you. Our promise: To deliver high-quality, engaging, and life-enriching experiences that stay with you long after the adventure ends.
