Multi-night retreats
For teams that are looking to spend an extended time together and are seeking the deep focus that time out in nature brings.
Staying at The Forge for three nights or more is the perfect opportunity for teams to take a deeper journey towards their goals. Spending time off-grid and away from all the usual pressures of modern life can reap significant benefits in terms of increased attention, creative thinking, and innovative problem solving. Add some nature-based activities into the mix and these benefits are amplified even further.
