Rainbow mountains.

This journey is for you if…

• You want to immerse in wild nature and deep connection

• You feel the call to unplug from modern life and remember what is real

• You love being in nature, playful exploration, sacred ceremony and soulful community

• You want an transformational experience — not a tour

This may NOT be for you if…

• You want luxury hotels and comfort travel

• You dislike hiking or wild weather

• You want a strict schedule and constant structure

• You need WiFi and phone connection all the time

This is a nature immersion, not a tour.

And that’s exactly what makes it so powerful.

This journey is about coming back to what truly matters.

During these days we will:

🌿 Wander through hidden waterfalls and ancient moss valleys

🔥 Share heart-opening cacao ceremonies in nature

💧 Bathe in wild hot springs beneath rainbow mountains

🌄 Hike through some of the most breathtaking landscapes on Earth

✨ Laugh, play, and reconnect with the magic of being human

This is a space where adventure meets soul.

Where nature becomes the teacher.

And where your wild heart gets to breathe again.

  • " This retreat powerfully connected me with nature and the land. It felt... Magnetic. I felt so connected with the other souls that joined the retreat. It felt like being a child at summer camp, but even more fun and nourishing! It was healing to be so disconnected from the regular world, while at the same time becoming reconnected to all the deeper and more foundational elements."

    — Megan, Canada

  • "I think about this trip often, the people and the places. There was surrender and a letting go that was graceful and not forced.....a flow that was present each day."

    — Lori, Canada

  • "When I close my eyes and think about a powerful moment, what comes up is when I'm laying or sitting in the moss. It's not a single moment but it seems to be connected with being grounded, rooted, especially during cacao ceremonies."

    —Jóna, Iceland

The Foundations of the Journey

The Sacred — Open the Heart

Every day we gather in circle with ceremonial cacao — a gentle yet powerful plant teacher that invites us to soften, listen and open.

Through cacao ceremonies, sharing circles and connection with the land, we create a space where authenticity and presence naturally unfold.

A space where you can simply be yourself.

Stillness — Listen Deeply

In the vast silence of the Icelandic highlands, something profound happens.

The mind quiets.

The senses awaken.

The heart begins to speak.

Our days begin with guided meditation, breath and movement, allowing us to meet each day grounded, open and present.

We also invite a digital detox during the retreat so you can fully immerse in the experience — while a professional photographer captures the journey for you.

Play — Let Your Inner Child Roam Free

Rewilding is not only about stillness.

It is also about joy.

Through games, storytelling, music and spontaneous moments of play, we create space for your inner child to come alive again.

Curiosity returns.

Laughter echoes through the valleys.

Magic happens.

Nature — Enter the Wild

Each day we venture into landscapes that feel almost otherworldly.

Hidden valleys.

Towering waterfalls.

Colorful mountains shaped by fire and ice.

We hike to extraordinary places in the highlands of Friðland Fjallaland - allowing the land to guide us each day to special power places.

Here we slow down and truly experience the land — feeling its power, silence and beauty.

Nature in Iceland has a way of moving something deep within us.

It awakens wonder.

Water — Awaken Your Life Force

Iceland is a land of living waters.

Cold rivers rushing from glaciers.

Waterfalls cascading into hidden pools.

Steaming geothermal springs beneath open skies.

Throughout our journey we will immerse ourselves in these wild waters — feeling the refreshing vitality of the cold and the soothing warmth of natural hot springs.
