We would highly recommend to join this event by yourself for many reasons. It’s a great opportunity to create sacred space for yourself, to take a break from daily responsibilities, to make new friends and gain a fresh perspective. Typically our guests range in age between 25-65 who are also excited about this experience!
Verbier is generally renowned as a “safe” resort although of course we advise you not to take undue risks.
Mountain safety is an important factor and not to be underestimated, particularly regarding fast changing weather conditions. Please always check the weather and conditions when heading out on a hike/exploration and check with local specialists in case of any concerns.

We advise cash payments in some smaller cafés/restaurants. Verbier is French speaking although as an international destination, English is also widely spoken.
