Your Nature & Nurture Retreat in Slovenia includes all meals, those prepared at our Alpine Ranch as well as meals out. You will be asked to provide any special dietary restrictions before the start of your retreat so we are able to accommodate your requests.

We ARE able to accommodate any dietary restrictions on this AdZENture as long as it’s noted on the Guest Form.

Please note: if you choose to select a specific diet, special meals will be prepared just for you and that is what you will be served. Changes may not be possible on short notice. 

Example: “I don’t eat seafood” means that our chef will design a special, non-seafood dish just for you when the rest of the guests will receive a seafood meal. You will not be able to ‘try’ the seafood dish as these meals are made to order specifically for each guest. Thank you for your understanding.

The Nature & Nurture Retreat in Slovenia is full of restorative and nurturing experiences. We will spend our mornings enjoying a mindful start with delicious, local foods for breakfast and an all-levels, practice diving into the philosophy and movement of yoga and breath. Our days will include a variety of nature excursions and cultural experiences in the mountains and in the valley and villages. All activities are available to everyone with a moderate level of fitness and no prior experience or knowledge is necessary to participate in what we have planned.

Our Soča Valley AdZENture in Slovenia is quite active, we do require insurance for all guests. Insurance is required not only in the case of a medical emergency but it’s also a good idea to include travel insurance in the case of emergency or conflicts preventing you from joining our AdZENture after you book.

If guests are unable to join the retreat, travel insurance will often issue a refund when purchased within 7 days of the original purchase. We advise that all guests book travel insurance within a week of submitting your deposit for your AdZENture in order to protect your investment!

Medical coverage is required.  Travel insurance is not required, it’s suggested. Travel insurance often includes air transport in the case of an emergency. Please ask us if you have questions about this and your AdZENtures team can give you some suggestions!
