DAY 1
Day 1 of your journey with Reboot Retreats begins with a scenic 200 km drive from Cape Town into the breathtaking Cederberg Mountains. As you arrive, you're warmly welcomed with a refreshing drink, followed by a relaxed introductory chat around the fire. Our private chef prepares a delightful meal, setting the stage for a rejuvenating experience.
Settle into your cozy accommodations and unwind as you connect with like-minded individuals from across the globe. Embrace the opportunity to disconnect from everyday distractions and immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature.
DAY 2
We start each day with a revitalizing sunrise yoga session led by our expert facilitator. Paired with serene meditation as the sun rises over the mountain crests, this practice aligns our guests with nature's rhythms, fostering a deep sense of rejuvenation and balance.
Following a sumptuous breakfast crafted by our private chef, indulge in a leisurely morning at camp, allowing time to unwind after your journey. Our dedicated in-house massage therapist is available to enhance relaxation and guide you gently into the retreat atmosphere.
For those seeking exploration, embark on an optional guided walk to discover the ancient rock art of the region post-lunch, perfect for reconnecting with the natural landscape.
Later in the afternoon, join us for a sunset stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) session, a tranquil floating meditation on nearby waters, enhancing your connection with nature's beauty.
As evening falls, gather for dinner followed by fireside stargazing, culminating in a day filled with serenity and adventure in the heart of the Cederberg Mountains.
DAY 3
Daily sunrise yoga and meditations are followed by a beautiful breakfast. We have a gentle morning in camp where clients opt for massages from our in-house masseuse or read a book by a swimming hole in the sun.
We pack our backpacks with our overnight supplies and adventure tents in preparation for a departure after lunch. Many of our clients favourite day on the itinerary as we head up the mountain for our overnight hike.
This 5 hour (one way) hike through the iconic Wolfberg Cracks and to the base of the Wolfberg Arch rock formation where we set up camp for the night with our adventure tents.
We spend the night star bathing and counting shooting stars in one of Africa's best night skies. We say it's not a matter of whether you'll spot a shooting star, its how many!
DAY 4
Awaken to a serene sunrise meditation and an adventurous breakfast beneath the iconic Wolfberg Arch.
Afterward, we descend the mountain, heading towards a secluded swimming hole nestled at the trail's base.
Spend the afternoon immersed in the healing waters of these pristine mountain pools, basking on sun-warmed rocks to relax and digest our overnight hike, culminating in a delightful lunch.
As evening falls, gather for a comforting dinner followed by fireside chats, embracing the tranquility and camaraderie of our retreat experience.
DAY 5
Conclude your transformative journey with a revitalizing final yoga session and a nourishing breakfast.
Following this, immerse yourself in a guided ice bath experience, scientifically proven to boost dopamine levels and leave you invigorated.
