Activities & Nourishment
Slow Hikes
You will connect with the outdoors with our mindful and unhurried hiking experiences. The hikes offer a chance to (re)connect with nature and tune into the rhythm of your body and self. Movement = medicine. Combined with mountains, we believe it is powerful way to focus, gain clarity and connect with yourself.
Movement, Yoga & Meditation
On this retreat, there will be guided movement, yoga and meditation sessions designed to nurture, center and focus yourself. From morning flows, to gentle stretches, restorative practices and moments of inner reflection, the sessions offer a sense of stillness and restoration.
Ayurvedic Food
We believe that nourishing the body with wholesome and delicious food is an integral part of the holistic experience. We are collaborating with an ayurvedic chef who specializes in creating delightful vegetarian meals for our guests.
