Soulful Human & Nature Experiences
At all Seasons
After hiking, snow shoeing, adventuring & connecting with the locals for a few years, I am pleased to invite you to this exceptional trip in a place that is not bookable on booking.com neither air b&b.​
This is a 3-day unique experience in a kind and caring small community ( max 8 participants) of human beings in an authentic and pristine Alpine environment.
Meet you in Pays D'Enhaut region, Switzerland.
Walking/ Snow shoeing in Pays D'en Haut region means immersing yourself into authentic, fairy tale like landscapes. This region breaths simplicity, coziness and 'la douceur pour le Coeur' (open hearted softness).
​
During 3 days we will take time to snow shoe in the hidden corners of this Valley, not rushing anywhere, taking our time to appreciate the landscape, cultural life, human and nature connection.
​
We will stay in 400 years old private chalet which has been recently renovated by Marianne, the host of the chalet. Originating form Rougemont, Marianne loves nature and sharing local life & culture with others.

About Ruta
.jpg)
Ruta did her first hike back in 2013- she then realized that the real life is not happening in the indoor- office environment but rather outside.
This made her realize that she was missing something important in her life- connection with Nature. 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. Retreat participants often say that Ruta's passion for Nature is contagious.
Ruta 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).
By creating Be Outside Coaching movement, she has connected her 2 major passions: activities outside and human development. Be Outside Coaching delivers immersive and holistic Nature experiences in the different corners of pristine the Swiss Alps.
Be Outside. Be Authentic. Be You

,Ruta is a fabulous guide and retreat host. She's friendly and super caring. She knows very well what she is doing, wants to provide and what to do. I enjoy doing hiking without worrying about which direction to take, when to take my train, and all the planning. I trust that everyone will have soul-opening and mind-boggling experience with Ruta if you let her kindly take your hands and lead you into the woods or over the hills., Trinh Nguyen
