Hosts
Connie and Kyle are a force to be reckoned with. A combination of brain and brawn you can get physical with Connie out on the lakes waters or study the scenery with Geologist Kyle. Both will be on site to take care of you throughout your stay.

A water baby at heart, Connie is a paddle board, kayak and wakeboard instructor local to the area. She will be your main point of contact during the retreat.
Kyle Oconnor
Kyle has been guiding visitors around Black Lake for the last 5 years and knows the trails and coves like the palm of his hand. Kyle has a geology background and leads the hikes, nature walks and wild swimming excursions.
Schedule

Black Lake, Montenegro
A serene setting with crystal clear waters
The Black Lake is a stunning glacial lake surrounded by a pine forest, which casts a perfect reflection in the mirror-like surface of the lake. The snowcapped Medjed mountain peak, rising to a height of 2287m, provides the perfect backdrop to the spectacular scenery.
Reviews
The kayaking was amazing - really beautiful scenery and a smooth ride. Connie also deserves a mention as she was a great teacher and really made the trip.
Alex, Barcelona
Absolutely brilliant. We loved the balance between action and relaxation which you do not normally experience on retreat. The hotel and catering was outstanding too.
