FAQs
Answers to the most frequently asked questions about the men’s retreat in South Africa.
Dummy
1. What can I expect at this retreat?
No vacation awaits you. It’s a call – back to yourself.
This retreat is an invitation to discover what lies beneath the surface: your strength, your clarity, your truth.
In the midst of untamed nature, in honest encounters with other men, in moments of stillness, movement and deep reflection.
You will be challenged, held – and strengthened.
2. How safe is it in South Africa?
Security is not a luxury – it is the basis for real transformation.
That’s why we only work with long-standing, trustworthy partners in a protected region away from the hustle and bustle.
Everything is organized: Transfers, accommodation, procedures. You can let go – we keep the framework. You go your own way.
3. How do I live - and how will I be looked after?
You will stay in stylish, nature-loving accommodation – simple, clear, soothing. No luxury, but quality with soul.
The food is nutritious, consciously chosen and tailored to you – vegetarian, vegan or with meat if you like.
Your body gets what it needs. Your mind gets space. Your heart gets attention.
4. What does a typical day look like?
Every day follows a rhythm that brings you back to feeling.
In the morning: movement, stillness, grounding.
During the day: guided processes, nature walks, honest exchanges between men.
In the evening: integration, fire, stories, silence.
Between the impulses there is enough time for you – to arrive, to let go, to be.
5. Who will lead this retreat?

He has guided himself through shadows and light – and accompanies men on this path.

Not a guru. Not an act. But a man who sees you – and trusts you to arrive at yourself.
Do you feel the call?
Sometimes it takes a step out of everything you know to finally arrive at yourself.
If you feel that it is time to reconnect with your essence – with your power, your stillness, your truth – then this place is for you. Nature is calling. The men are waiting. Your time is now.
Or write to us – if you have any questions, or if you just want to feel whether it’s right for you.
