Morzine Runners Retreat: 30th June – 6th July 2024

Start your day in the right way, with a yoga inspired stretching & breathwork session overlooking the lake. Relax and take in the breathtaking views, whilst taking part in our stretching sessions, led by our expert coaches. The peaceful surroundings, provide the perfect landscape for your morning routine.

Perfect lakeside trails right on your doorstep. Walk out of the hotel and straight down onto the 3km trail, which runs around the stunning Lake Montriond. Take part in our group runs, or go out at your own lesiure for some you time, with a light jog or walk around the lake. You can even finish your run with a quick dip in the Le Lac.

It’s not all about the running. We plan in hikes on some of the most amazing trails, so you get the chance to explore one of the most beautiful locations in the World. Walk and talk with positive, like-minded people and be blown away by the mountain backdrop.

Every year we take our Retreaters on an epic day trip. This is a chance to go further afield and explore the French Alps and the best it has to offer. Past trips include Chamonix and the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, but where will we take our Retreaters this year? This is our surprise element of the trip, which leaves you with something extra special to look forward to.

With the lake on your doorstep, you will have the chance to go kayaking or paddle boarding. This really is kayaking with a difference. The backdrop of the mountains, provides the most idylic of settings for your kayak. Our retreaters will go out as a group, choosing which activity suits them best, but you can also go out in your own time, if you wish to. 

You will have the chance to either paddle board or Kayak on the stunning Lake Montriond. Challenge yourself to do something new, in a safe and stunning environment, with others who are also embracing the challenge. Our planned paddle boarding and kayaking is included in your trip, but there is always time for extra if you feel like you want more!

During your stay at Hotel du Lac, you will be treated to the most incredible food. Breakfast, lunch and dinner is all included as part of your Retreat and our team work with the chef’s to create a menu that is just right for a runners retreat. Enjoy every meal in the company of other retreaters, overlooking the stunning lake.

Our expert coaching team will always be on hand during your retreat. We plan all activities, so that every single person feels included and we have time in the week when you can ask our coaches any questions you may have.
