Hiking & Outdoor Adventures Zürich

May is the month of bloom in the Alpine Meadows.
Swiss Alpine flowers in full bloom are one of the loveliest sights you can see in the Alps mountain range.
The best time to see the Alpine flowers of Switzerland is late spring to mid-summer, when bright blossoms will surround you in the meadows and high rocky ground of the mountains.
The Narcissus Bloom retreat welcomes you to the exceptional place of Montreux Riviera.
Wild narcissus bloom in May and transform the meadows above Montreux into immaculately white, perfumed landscapes. As soon as the snow melts, the leaves of the narcissi shoot out of the earth and unfold the energy stored in their bulbs to burst into bloom precociously.
​
This narcissi bloom is known since Belle Epoque as ‘May Snow’.
Perfumed, white, flower abundant trails invite us to admire the most beautiful meadows and breathtaking landscapes.
This retreat is exceptionally focusing on Nature: the astonishing outside world as well as your inner naturalness and your authentic Bloom.
​
While experiencing the abundant spring flower fields, the incredible mountain views, you will fully immerse into yourself.
​Nature connection practices, such as hiking, forest therapy and natural mindfulness, are pathways allowing to return to a basis of health and happiness. While exploring the outside environment, you will rediscover and reconnect with our inner world.

Imagine- 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.
Witnessing 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.
