The Outdoor Experience ("TOE") has been offering a range of Outdoor Adventure Intervention programs for young people aged 15 - 25 years since 1985. 

TOE is based at the Bush Hut, a heritage listed house surrounded by native bush land in Kew, an inner Eastern suburb of Melbourne.

TOE's Bush Adventure Therapy Program accepts individual referrals from young people, families, friends or other community agencies. Each program takes a maximum of 10 young people on extended wilderness journeys and ventures to some of the most remote places in Victoria.

The program is for young people who have, or have had, issues with alcohol and/or drug use. This program provides numerous and significant opportunities for participants to develop healthy relationships with self, others and the environment.

TOE also offers a range of Community Adventure Programs to agency referred groups. These are tailored to suit the needs of the group and may range in duration from one day to 2-5 days camps.
