Experience the thrill of axe-throwing in the woods of Oxfordshire

Suitable for anyone over 8 years old, the axe throwing contest is a fun game that includes some trial throws and gives everyone a chance to win.

The tomahawks used for throwing are not giant wood chopping axes, making them easier to handle, but participants still need to aim accurately to hit the target.

The experience takes place in a woodland area around a campfire, creating a magical atmosphere.

How to find us

By car:

Fat Squirrel Outdoor is in a farm woodland just outside North Leigh, Witney, Oxfordshire 

You will find them opposite North Leigh Football Club & Eynsham Hall on the A4095 - the entrance can be hard to find and looks like a farm track marked as a footpath.  

There is not a postcode for the site - the closest postcode is the football club at OX29 6SL

People also ask:

Is there anywhere to park?

  • There is no on-site parking - please walk or cycle to the woods if you can.

Can I bring my dog?

  • Well behaved and friendly dogs are welcome, but note that there are resident deer and other animals in the woodland so they must remain on a lead at all times. Please pick up after your dog too. 

What happens if the weather is bad?

  • Rain: The camp area is fairly sheltered so, events are not cancelled or closed for rain unless there has been a severe weather warning. Your shelter will be waterproof and the cover is fire retardant so it is ok for fires to be inside the shelters on wet evenings, you can sit under cover.
  • Windy: It isn't safe to be under trees in high winds and events may be cancelled when the wind is strong. If an event is cancelled, you will be offered an alternative date.   
  • Snow: For light snow it is likely that events will go ahead - please dress appropriately for being outdoors in the snow. If we need to cancel due to heavy snow, you will be offered an alternative date.   

What is it like in the woods?

  • There are no footpaths: The woodland is kept as natural as possible to retain its charm. The ground is relatively flat but it is uneven and there are some trunks from felled trees to watch out for.
  • Toilets: We do have a toilet and hand-washing facilities, there isn't a baby changing unit but babies are allowed to be in the wood and for alfresco nappy changing. 
  • Shelters without electricity: All accommodation is canvas - we do not have a building and there are no phone charging facilities. We do not have mains electricity or gas - so some things take a little longer.
  • First aid: Fat Squirrel Outdoor staff are first aiders and we have first aid facilities.
