“Find Your Way” is a deeply personal retreat in the heart of nature. Over three days, you will hike alongside our donkeys through the stunning landscapes of the Alt Empordà (Catalonia, Spain). Far away from the noise of everyday life, you will find room for stillness, new perspectives, and personal development.
You can experience this retreat completely on your own with dedicated personal guidance, or together with a small, private group of people you wish to share this unique journey with.
The powerful interplay of donkeys, nature, movement, and integrated coaching makes this trek an extraordinary timeout. The donkeys naturally set the pace, becoming unique mirrors and companions along the way.

Day 5 (Departure): The final day offers the perfect opportunity to let your insights settle and beautifully round off your personal journey. (Only morning)
During our time in nature, there is plenty of space for walking, observing, reflecting, and switching off. Targeted coaching sessions are seamlessly integrated into the retreat—held in the mornings and along the trail—tailored entirely to your personal topics and needs.
Donkeys are not just pack animals. They are companions, mirrors, and sources of inspiration. Their calm nature, steady pace, and authentic behavior help us look at our own lives from a completely fresh perspective.
