It is incredible how your body changes when you are in the NZ bush. The pace, the clean air, the amazing food and sounds of nature cause you to slow down and will put your body and mind into a zone where you will feel energised and clear.

Arete is not just a venue. We believe that combining physical activity with mental activity will produce far better results, therefore you will get to choose how you wish to integrate an experiential exercise into your offsite. This might be morning yoga or walk, the high ropes, bush craft, short hike or a team activity at the outdoor pursuits centre accessed across the river by the zip line.

Eight (twin share or single) luxury whare scattered throughout a section of native bush, provide your accommodation; these are connected by winding pathways, leading to the wharenui where groups meet to dine, share, and connect.
