‘The Simple Things’ Getaway
'The Simple Things' getaway is about reconnecting to the essential: time in nature, mindful connections, silence, simple living.
On this short weekend adventure in the authentic grounds of Appenzellerland, we take our practice around Sämtisersee & Fälensee lakes for beautiful hikes mixed with mindfulness practice stops. We'll spend the night in a mountain hut by Fälensee, right in the heart of the Alpstein, enjoying a warm dinner, sitting by the bone fire & sleeping right by the lake. On top of that you'll get to enjoy soothing meditation practices & an energising morning yoga flow. It is all about harvesting the value of simplicity.
The trip price includes lovely hikes, yoga & mindfulness practices by the lakes, overnight stay at the Fählenalp guesthouse, dinner & breakfast!
We voluntarily keep the price of this weekend low to be accessible to as many as possible.
Come on your own or bring your friends/family & let's enjoy memorable times together in the mountains!
Practical notes:
- The hike includes a few steep climbs but is accessible to anyone with a good physical fitness level & a positive attitude 🙂
- The evening hut offers basic but charming bedding & sanitary necessities, embracing the beauty of simplicity (expect dormitory beds, compost toilet, no electricity but warm food, fresh water & spectacular surroundings!)
- Because of the secluded & simple nature of hut we're staying at, we are not able to accommodate specific diet requirements - if you require such adjustments, we suggest you bring some extra food with you
- Open to all levels of Yoga
- In case of bad weather, the event will be canceled on the Friday

To me, "The Simple Things" getaway is not only a chance to practice yoga in nature & enjoy spectacular hikes, it is also an invitation to step away from the busyness of daily life to reconnect with the essence of things. Being reminded of the nourishment that lies in simplicity, movement, silence, connecting with others & Nature. This place in the Alpstein brings all of that & more, and I couldn't be more excited to share this weekend with you.
