Experience I: Scenic Train Ride & Community Dinner

Winter Wonderland transformed

The day begins with a train ride to the Oberalp Pass where the landscape opens into vast snowfields and a frozen lake plateau. Here the first stationary Sanctum experience unfolds. The setting invites lightness, clarity and playfulness as the group reconnects with the simplicity of winter.
There is time to enjoy the snow before returning individually to Andermatt.
In the evening the group gathers for a warm community dinner at The Chalet

Experience II. The Gütsch

Winter renewal in the high mountains

A gondola carries the group to Gütsch. The air is bright and the windmills turn slowly above the valley. A guided hike leads through the windmill park before the second stationary experience takes place. This moment is designed to refresh the inner landscape and create space for new year energy.
The retreat concludes with lunch at The Japanese at Gütsch with panoramic views of the surrounding peaks.
Guests return by gondola in their own time.
