More than a day out together

A great company outing can simply be about having a good time together. Teambuilding has a more deliberate focus.

 

We use the mountain environment and shared outdoor challenges to get people working together in ways that are different from their everyday roles. That might mean navigating as a group, solving a practical problem, making decisions together or dealing with an unexpected change of plan.

 

The activities aren’t there simply to keep everyone busy. They give teams something real to work on together.

 

What could your teambuilding experience include?

  • Navigation and map-reading challenges
  • Team problem-solving activities
  • Shared mountain challenges
  • Fire-making or shelter-building activities where appropriate
  • A night in a mountain hut or under canvas
  • Snowshoeing and winter challenges
  • Time for team reflection and conversation

 

Build something together, solve a navigation challenge or find your way to the next point using only a map and compass.

 

Built around your team
Some teams want to improve communication or collaboration. Others are navigating change, bringing new colleagues together or simply want to strengthen the way they work as a group.

 

Before designing the programme, we look at your team, what you want to get out of the experience and how much challenge is appropriate. The result might be playful and energetic, more reflective, or a combination of both.

 

Looking for something deeper?
Teambuilding focuses on how people work together through shared activities and challenges.

 

If you’re looking for more time and space for reflection, leadership development and deeper team conversations, our multi-day Leadership Trails are designed specifically for that.

Experiences

  • “The trail was well balanced, which must have been a challenge taking into account our very diverse team, (also in terms of hiking experience). Really wonderful location, especially the mountain hut.”

    A. Mojana

  • “The coaching was needed and very positive: really supporting and driving the team dynamics/energies in the right direction.”

    M. Schipper

  • “The trail exceeded my expectations!”

    N. Shadid

  • “Normally in these nature team-building activities you see a soft-sports approach to fit all levels. This was not the case this time, I love that.”

    B. Arias

  • “The hike was good, not too difficult but also not too easy, great nature experience and out-of standard routes.”

    L. des Vignes

  • “What I really liked about the coaching was that you work in the area of phsycological safety and mindfulness, which is so refreshing in a work performance culture. I believe your approach is the right one.”

    R. Philips

  • “Famke’s key strength is how she combines her great social skills with an in-depth knowledge of being in the outdoor and the mountains. This combination creates not only a strong feeling of safety in the group but also a great atmosphere of positivity and fun.”
