A Time for Discovery & Adventure

Take a break with your child(ren), for a shared experience in the land of your ancestors. These retreats are intended for both young and old, and are guaranteed to provide memories to last a lifetime. You will be close to nature, amidst forests and meadows, free to explore medieval castles that recall stories from a personally significant place and time. In addition to family history, you will be hiking, riding & swimming. There will also be other activities to rekindle folk traditions and enhance multi-cultural understanding.
 
Program

Beginning on Mondays, retreats are intended to last 5 days. Mornings will be spent getting acquainted through orientation exercises. Interpretive tours through historical landscapes and lessons with crafts, song and dance will take place in the afternoons. In addition, there will be evening performances by visiting storytellers, musicians and dancers. In the interest of planning, these retreats are set in the following two regions (other regions such as Český Ráj and Hlinsko are also available upon request), and based on sufficient advance notice:
 

Southern Bohemia

Natural Protected Zone, where it is still possible to find many examples of traditional lifestyles. Points of interest will be the small towns and villages, with an emphasis on 19th century music and customs. Lodging will be in characteristic old farm houses and mills.
 

Beskydy

Natural Protected Zone in Eastern Moravia. Here you can find examples of a proud people, exempted from farm labor in exchange for their services as boarder guards. This is the land of legendary giants and defiance. These mountains also offer one of the most dramatic landscapes in the Czech Republic. Come explore the folk art, architecture, and customs of the Wallachian culture with us.
