SUMMARY:Welcome to Wonder!  3 days trekking experience June 7-9th bernese oberland, Switzerland
DESCRIPTION:Come join me on a hike, To Bernese Oberland’s height Where summer’s early rays do shine And nature’s beauty is divine.\n​The mountains high, the air so pure, A sight that will forever allure We’ll trek the trails and take in views Of valleys green and skies so blue.\n​The cows that graze, the flowers that bloom, A symphony of nature’s tune We’ll sit and rest upon the peak And let our hearts and souls speak.\nSo come my friend, let’s make our way To  Bernese Oberland’s sway Where nature’s grandeur we shall see And memories we’ll make, just you and me. This Poem emerged from the friendship Hike above Murren.\n\nAbout Mountain wonder trek\nImagine- your feet on a wild mountain trail breathing in fresh oxygen and beauty that come in the form of views, sounds and smells.. standing in the awe of mountain majesty, taking it all in with your eyes and heart.\nWitnessing the most beautiful show on Earth: the sound of running streams far below, the melody of peaceful cowbells in a meadow , a profound light heating up your face as the sun goes down…the smell of fresh nature and a cool crisp breeze on your body and indescribable view that is almost hard to absorb.\n\nDo you believe that this splendor can truly exist?\nWelcome to Mountain WONDER 3 day trekking and mindfulness experience in the Swiss Alps.\nThe natural beauty of Nature can help to inspire feelings of awe and wonder, which can have a profound effect on the human spirit.

(oh, and perhaps the sound of marmottes and cow bells too..)\nWe will stay in history rich swiss mountain homes. This is already quite an experience! Both of the houses have been built during Belle Epoque and have still kept the charm if that time.\nDay 1: after getting to know each other, we will go to discover the surroundings of the local villages and soak it the first majesty of the mountains.\nNight 1 we will stay in a Historical Hotel in a village of Murren\nDay 2: after hiking further through the valley and possibly climbing a peak,\nwe will stay in a secluded Mountain House in the midst of Stechelberg Valley, full of waterfalls and well hidden beauty.\nNot many people know this place yet. It is reputed for hospitality and remoteness, in the evening there is no electricity here…\nDay 3: after breakfast we will go to the end of valley to explore mountain glaciers and stunning waterfalls.\nWe will hike through this stunning valley full of waterfalls and soak in gorgeous views before returning to the civilization. (sorry…)\n\nOne of the things that I love the most about the hut to hut trekking is that moment when, after long day outside, hiking, soaking it all in and sometimes going through challenging terrains, once of the sudden, you arrive to the mountain hut. Your shelter for the night, your home – where everyone is welcome, no matter your status, physical condition and level of tiredness .’                               \n Ruta, Be Outside Coaching\n\nWhat to look forward to?\n• Breathtaking views\n• Hiking like the Swiss Do or even better…\n• Nature Connection Practices\n• Free time for personal reflection/relaxation\n• Mindfulness in the Mountains\n• Stretching sessions after hiking\n• Intimate experience: this trek is limited to 8 participants max\n\nExtras:\n• Night Hiking and Milky Way Observation\n• Cow bell & marmotte concert 😊\n• Inspiring & Empowering group spirit\n \n \n\nI’d sit for hours watching the birds or squirrels, or looking into the faces of flowers. When I discovered a new plant, I sat beside it for a minute or a day, to make its acquaitance and try to hear what it had to tell me.’ John Muir, My Life with Nature\n\n\nWe will stay in 2 authentic and very local mountain houses where traditions are still alive.

This waterfall has been captured on canvas by noted landscape artists going back to the 1820s, but due to its remote location, more people have seen the paintings than have actually seen the falls.\nObersteinberg is set within a protected area, where many alpine species that were once hunted to near extinction are now making a welcome comeback.

Since then, most of her time she spends outside- climbing, hiking, wild camping, walking in the forests, parks and other natural places. She has become hiking ‚guru‘ and is now passionate to share the most beautiful places in the Swiss Alps with the others. During her outings she invites participants to experience nature differently: through mindfulness, nature connection practices & human element.\nRetreat participants often say that Ruta’s passion for Nature is contagious.\nRuta is a professional mountain leader ( Association of Mountain Guides in Switzerland), neuro-coach (Neuroleadership Institute, London), and forest therapy guide (Association of Nature and Forest Therapy, USA). \nBy creating Be Outside Coaching movement, she has connected her 2 major passions: activities outside and human development.\nBe Outside Coaching delivers immersive and holistic Nature experiences in the different corners of the Swiss Alps.\n\n ‘ There is yet another way to be, to see , to feel, to lead. You will never hike the same way again after experiencing this.’  – Be Outside Coaching\nWhat do previous participants say about Be Outside Coaching?\n‘To be in nature means to experience everything: the sounds, plants, trees- to touch, to feel how everything is changing. It’s amazing to see how much nature gives to us. We must experience this again and again. I am so happy that I found out about the Be Outside Coaching.\nWhat Ruta does in those Nature Retreats is amazing and I wish to everyone to experience it.\n\n\nJurgita, teacher and school coordinator\n \n\n\n\n\nCan’t wait to see you in the mountains!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n
