Come up, Slow Down...

…It's not shocking that this is the catchphrase for the cute town of Gstaad, nestled within the Swiss Alps. A week of hiking, cooking, and enjoying nature with a wholesome group of girls.

We’ll be based in a cozy mountain home near Gstaad, surrounded by some of the most lush peaks in the Swiss Alps. Over the week, we’ll experience the mountains in many different ways, through morning hikes, day treks, lake BBQs, and curated dinners.

Alongside the mountain days, we’ll slow down and connect with local cuisine and traditions. We’ll visit a local restaurant for a cheese fondue dinner, and we’ll spend the night at a high-altitude hut with insane views.

Evenings will be spent cooking and sharing homemade meals together, resting, and enjoying the quiet rhythm of mountain life. This retreat is about learning to be in nature, moving through incredible landscapes, and sharing meaningful moments in a small group.

Highlights

Every trip has a handful of moments that end up defining it. These are the ones we've built the itinerary around — the places, experiences, and in-between bits that tend to stay with you.

Tasting the flavors of Swiss Alps

Our evenings will be dedicated to incredible food, starting with an authentic Swiss fondue night in a little chalet restaurant nestled in the middle of town. We'll also take advantage of the outdoors with sunset BBQs by the lake, and enjoy cozy nights in, cooking meals at home with fresh, local ingredients.

Hiking the surrounding alpine trails

With nature right at our doorstep, we'll spend our days exploring the stunning mountain landscapes on foot. Everything is within walking distance, allowing us to easily venture out to discover hidden waterfalls, pristine alpine lakes, and breathtaking peaks at our own pace.

Overnight at the Blüemlisalphütte SAC

For our biggest adventure, we'll trek high into the Alps for an unforgettable overnight stay at the Blüemlisalphütte SAC. This classic mountain refuge offers the rare chance to sleep surrounded by rugged summits and wake up to a spectacular, unobstructed sunrise over the glaciers.

Accommodations

Each stay is chosen for the same reasons: location, character, and how well it fits the rhythm of the trip. We book as a group, so you arrive knowing where you're sleeping and who you're sharing it with.
