FAQs

  • Perfect.

    First off, you don’t need to be an extreme athlete in order to participate..

    You do, however, need to come ready for a bit of the unpredictability inherent in nature, and eager push your perceived limits.

    At the same time, you must be mindful that real limits do exist, and being careless is a fast track to serious injury.

    We are here to guide, support, challenge, and coach - not to babysit.

    If you have previous experience trail-running barefoot, climbing trees, doing ice-baths, breathwork, etc., that’s great - but by no means necessary.

    Get in touch if you have any specific questions about training and preparation, or check out our online program here.

  • The investment is €1,200, with an early bird discount of €200 until October 1.

    This covers food, lodging, and everything else apart from transportation.

    We both have multiple decades of experience exploring the limits of human performance, and invest a significant amount of time and energy to make this experience as powerful as possible for all participants.

    We ask you to do the same.

  • You come with your tent and basic camping gear.

    We provide everything else necessary for a life-changing experience fueled by healthy and hearty food.

    Let us know if you have any allergies, intolerances, limitations, etc.

  • Not much. We’ll provide a full packing list when you sign up, but basically just a bit of rugged clothing, simple camping gear, and an open mind.

  • Not a problem. Please ask to make sure, but we can work around most dietary restrictions without a problem.

  • Expect a bit of sun, a bit of rain, wind, mud, and more. Temperatures will likely be around 7ºC at night and 15ºC during the day, though of course we can’t make any guarantees here.

    The whole point of this thing is to adapt to whatever nature gives us.

  • We work hard to adapt our offering, so that all participants can find a meaningful challenge regardless of their current level of fitness.

    That said, we will be running, jumping, climbing, etc. in unpredictable natural environments.

    The more significant physical limitations you have, the harder it will be for you to make the most of our time together.

    Please get in touch if you have specific concerns.
