Hike Mount Dikeos

Another early start if you wish – we want to start the hike up Mount Dikeos before it gets too hot. So breakfast is highly recommended and then we will jump in the organised transport to the mountain Village of Zia, from where we will begin our hike up to the highest point of the island to experience the incredible views. The hike is a moderate level, and for those of you who enjoy a trail run, you can set off ahead, along the trail, don’t worry it’s reasonably well signpost...Read All

Last day of fitness

Today is the last day of activities, so we will start the day off right with sunrise pilates or yoga! Then, throughout the day there will be a selection of fitness classes. However the classes will finish early as we will head to Kos town for our last evening meal. We will choose a local authentic taverna by the water’s edge at Kos harbour. This is also a great opportunity to shop for those last minute gifts to take home.

Location

The accommodation and base for the retreat is on the Greek island of Kos, an island of sandy beaches and coastal trails where Hippocrates lived and where he wrote his Hippocratic Oath.

You will arrive at Kos airport and transfers to your accommodation take around 40 minutes.

There are three different bases for the retreat, depending on your date of stay. The Nature retreat is situated in a traditional paradise surrounded by olive and fruit trees. You’ll love walking among the sage and thyme bushes, following goat paths to discover hidden canyons and old watermills. There’s a secluded sandy beach not far from the property with a cozy ‘taverna’ that serves fresh fish every day. The whole area is ideal for hiking, especially along the goat paths, which reach deep into the island’s nature-filled canyons.

The Luxury retreat is based in two neighbouring modern villas, in the beach resort of Tingaki. Located by the beach, the villas have their own swimming po

The whole week was full of activity, Ashlee is an outstanding trainer and her classes were challenging and fun. Gilly’s 30km bike ride was the h

Fitness activities range from yoga to bike rides and hikes to circuits or Pilates on the beach. Every activity was opt-in or opt-out and is tailored to individual capability with posit
