Every so often, Mountain Trek brings its award-winning program to the stunning Lake Tahoe area for three one-week health retreats!
World-class hiking, breathtaking vistas, and easy access make Tahoe a premier destination to unplug, recharge, and reset your health. The mesmerizing purity of the deep-blue lake will capture your heart, while the intoxicating aroma of pine trees will settle your mind and soul.
Come and experience a transformative health reset in Lake Tahoe. It will be a week you never forget.
Note: At this time, we do not have any pop-up retreats planned for Lake Tahoe. Please consider joining us at our primary lodge, where the program is best experienced, in British Columbia
The Experience
For the week (or two) you spend with us, you and a maximum of 12 guests will be guided through our intensive, award-winning program that is specifically designed and proven to dramatically transform your health physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Each day, you will torch calories hiking the lush forests of Tahoe, detoxify and cleanse your metabolic system through a nutritionist-designed, chef-prepared, calorie-restricted meal plan, relax deeply with therapeutic massages and time in the spa, slow down with guided meditations and yoga, and sleep deeply in your own master suite.
You will transform your body and mind, reverse the effects of aging, stress, and overworking, and rediscover your energy, creativity, and vitality.
It’s time to invest in your health and longevity. Join us.
The Results
Our science-based program has helped thousands of people unplug, recharge, and reset their health. It’s a life-changing experience that keeps guests coming back year after year.
Rediscover Your Healthiest Self
The Mountain Trek program leaves you feeling rested, recharged, rejuvenated, and balanced. It is an antidote to aging and a well-spring of vitality.
Your mood will improve and you will leave feeling light in body and spirit.
Melt Away Stress
Dramatically reduce cortisol, our primary stress hormone, through nature immersion, mindfulness practices, time in the spa, and therapeutic massages. Improve your mood, metabolic rate, reduce muscle tension, feel more present and in control, and improve sleep.
Clear Your Mind
Daily immersion into nature, guided meditations, and mindfulness time will clear and quiet your mind, improve your focus, and slow things down.
This will allow your authentic self to emerge and creativity to flourish.
Transform Your Body
Throughout the week, you will hike lush forests, climb peaks, and do downward dogs. You will cleanse from the inside out and remember what it feels like to really move your body (hint: good). You will lose weight, gain muscle, improve flexibility, correct posture, reduce inflammation, and balance hormones.
Detoxify
Eat cleanly, sweat, purge toxins. Repeat. Naturally.
Our program supports the natural eliminatory systems by removing all inflammatory foods, sugar, caffeine, and alcohol, moving our bodies—a lot—drinking lots of that infamous pure Lake Tahoe H2O, breathing clean air, and spending ample time in the spa amenities.
The Lodging
Enjoy a private Mountain Villa ideally situated for Lake Tahoe’s best hikes and well-equipped with master suites and spa amenities. Key specs & features include:
- 8 master bedrooms with king-size beds and en suites.
- Spa with plunge pool, sauna, steam room, and hot tub.
- Gourmet kitchen where our chef will prepare all of your delicious, nutrition meals.
- Great room with 22′ ceilings—perfect for sunrise yoga and evening functional movement sessions.
- Pool table, fireplaces, and comfortable couches for down time.
- Stunning panoramic views.
- Easy access from San Francisco, Truckee-Tahoe Airport, Reno Airport (RNO), and Sacramento Airport (SMF).
The Food
Each day, our chefs will prepare six energizing, detoxifying, and delicious meals and snacks designed to increase your energy levels, fire up your metabolism, reduce inflammation, and restore balance to your gut microbiome. Meals are properly portioned and timed, organic, and locally sourced as much as possible. Every single calorie of your week is accounted for by our nutritionist, ensuring you get a transformative metabolic reset. Overnight intermittent fasting is practiced to allow for a deeper sleep and cellular autophagy to occur.
The Hiking
Daily guided hikes in unfiltered nature will help you fully unplug while torching calories, igniting your athleticism, and building strength.
Each day, we will split into 3 guided groups depending on guest fitness levels, ensuring you hike at the right pace for your personal journey. We employ “nordic” hiking for our program, which utilizes hiking poles and allows us to hike faster, engage the upper-body, stabilize our steps, and protect knees on downhills.
Spa & Massage
Detoxify your body and mind, recover from your day of hiking, and support your natural eliminatory systems with time in the jacuzzi, steam room, sauna, and cold-plunge pool.
Enjoy three 50-minute therapeutic massages with your health retreat, and the option to add more if you wish.
Yoga, Movement, & Mindfulness
Each morning, you will begin your day with sunrise mobility & release yoga that is perfectly designed to prepare your body for the day ahead.
Evening movement classes will help develop good habits around properly using calories (vs. storing), posture, mobility, and preparing for deep and restful sleep.
Mindfulness and meditation sessions will be available throughout the week to help you slow down, be more present, and savor your life.

How Does This Experience Vary From The Primary British Columbia Retreat?
Our main goal—to offer you a life-changing transformative health reset—remains unchanged. However, when operating away from our lodge in B.C., there will always be some small differences. If you are familiar with our program in B.C., you can expect the following differences:
Closer to airports
No shuttle service to the lodge
Massages are in-room vs. in a treatment room
A maximum of 12 guests vs. 16
Morning yoga and evening movement classes will be held in a common area vs. a dedicated studio
Sunday to Sunday vs. Saturday to Saturday
Higher price point due to increases costs operating away from our own lodge

Is This Health Retreat Right For Me?
The Mountain Trek program has been designed, delivered, and evolved over the past two decades to help guests reclaim their health. We carefully and intentionally share and implement science-based methods that raise your metabolism, balance key hormones, reduce cellular inflammation, and modulate your endocrine and nervous systems. The result is lasting, genuine health improvements.
Our guests attend because they are serious about improving their health, physically and mentally. They understand that while sitting by the pool with a cocktail in their hand sounds relaxing, it won’t result in a happier, healthier life beyond that immediate moment.
Our health retreats follow a specifically designed schedule and have some key inclusions and exclusions (no sugar, alcohol, or caffeine). Please email, call, or request more information below if you have questions.
Rates
From the moment you arrive at the lodge, every single detail is taken care of and included in the price, allowing you to fully unplug and immerse in your health transformation.
This includes: 7 nights stay, all meals and snack, daily guided hikes, morning yoga, health workshops, movement classes, spa time, and three 50-minute therapeutic massages.
