We want everyone to have a safe, restful week. Please read this before you book, especially if you have a medical condition.
1. Levels and fitness
Every retreat has a level from 1 to 5. Read the level note on the retreat page and choose the lower level if you are unsure. You can always do less on any day.
2. Medical conditions
Tell us about any conditions, injuries or medication when you book. Breathwork and cold water are not suitable during pregnancy or for people with heart conditions, epilepsy or high blood pressure without medical advice.
3. First aid
Our resident hosts hold current first-aid certificates. The nearest hospital is in Évora, 30 minutes by car, and we can always drive you there.
4. Walking
Wear broken-in boots, carry water and stay with your guide. Our support van follows every walking day and can pick you up at any point.
5. Pool, sauna and plunge
There is no lifeguard at the pool. Sauna and cold plunge sessions are guided, and you should never use them alone or after alcohol.
6. Food and allergies
Tell us about allergies and intolerances when you book. Our kitchen handles nuts, gluten and dairy, so we cannot promise a trace-free environment.
7. Insurance
Travel insurance with medical and cancellation cover is required for every guest.
