Iceland Adventure RetreatImagine watching ancient geysers erupt before your eyes, hiking across icy glaciers, walking beneath a massive waterfall, bathing in natural geothermal pools, and trekking across lava fields on horseback… our much anticipated 'eternal summer' Iceland Adventure Retreat to Iceland will bring all of this to life - and more!
With summer in Iceland averaging 21 daylight hours each day, we will have all the time in the world to experience some of the nation’s most precious natural wonders and unique adventures. Our active vacation will also balance free time to soak up the beauty and get to know other guests in a social and fun environment. Join us! Fitness In this special adventure-focused Ketanga retreat, most of our workouts will be in the form of activities like hiking and climbing. We will also incorporate a couple of more formal fitness classes for anyone who wants to participate (ranging from yoga/stretch to interval training). Exact fitness details are TBD. Adventure This trip is full of adventures ranging from visiting some of the country’s most popular highlights to unique, lesser known experiences. We have a day planned to explore the Golden Circle, home of Thingvellir National Park, the Geysir geyser and Gullfoss waterfall. We will also go hiking on a glacier, try out ice climbing, and ride Icelandic horses across lava fields. Relaxation There’s nothing more relaxing than looking at natural beauty and unique landscapes. Throughout our stops on the retreat, we will take a moment here and there for (optional) meditation, journaling and photography. We also have incorporated free time in the schedule to try out some local restaurants and explore the capital city of Reykjavik. |

The Accommodations
Highline Lodge was Killington’s very first ski lodge built in 1959 by the Hubbard Family. The family owned and operated lodge served local and transient skiers during a pinnacle decade of transformation for what was then a frontier town. Fast forward to the present, the Lodge is home to a variety of guest rooms and amenities for winter and summer guests. From a game room to flower garden to a heated swim spa, there is much to see and do right on the property.
