5-star Cederberg retreat: “Doringbos”

Our Cape Town summer Fit50 retreat took place from 5pm Friday 12th and went through to 3pm on Sunday 14th November at “Doringbos” – an absolutely world-class, premium property on a remote 3000ha farm in the Cederberg, Western Cape.

Twenty-one Fit50’s made the 3.5 hour trek out of Cape Town into the Cederberg and had a weekend of activity out in the best of nature. There was hiking, mountain-biking, swimming in the Doring river and pools, quad biking, river kayaking, fishing, game viewing, bird watching, 2 guided Body work-in and meditation classes, music and dancing under the stars on the pan, spending time meeting others around the table at meal-times and lots of chilling around the boma and in the many fire-burning hot tubs.

The accommodation, food and service and massage therapy were all 5-star and it really was a very special time to unplug, unwind, relax, rejuvenate, nourish, heal, commune, connect and immerse ourselves in the remoteness, quietness, serenity and stillness of the Cederberg. Great health and wellbeing. For Body. Mind and Spirit.
