πͺ Guided Day Trek into the Heart of the Sahara
One of the highlights of this retreat is our authentic full-day trek into the deep dunes of the Sahara, guided by a local nomad expert who knows every grain of sand by heart.
We walk mindfully through the golden waves of silence, accompanied by camels that carry our gear and supplies. No rush – just rhythm, presence, and wide-open skies.
After 2-3 hours of walking, we arrive at a hidden oasis in the middle of nowhere, where we enjoy a traditional Berber lunch picnic under the tamarisk trees. Depending on the weather and wind, we may also hold a peaceful yoga session right there in the dunes, or back at our desert camp as the sun sets.
π Why This Retreat is So Special
We don’t just skim the edge of the Sahara – we immerse ourselves in it.
Most retreats offer two nights in the desert – but we offer three full nights at our intimate desert camp, allowing you to connect more deeply with nature, the nomadic rhythm, and yourself.
This deep desert day is the soul of the experience – and a personal favorite of mine. It’s a day that changes something in you. The stillness, the walking, the simplicity, the sharing of tea and stories – it opens your heart, widens your breath, and leaves lasting imprints in your being.

π¬ Why I Recommend This Retreat So Deeply
Because the desert slows you down and wakes something ancient within you.
Three nights under the stars allow your nervous system to truly soften.
And this special day – our desert walk with camels and oasis picnic – is where something opens. It’s hard to explain, but easy to feel once you're there.
