ABOUT MOUnTAIN TREK

We attribute our program’s success and awards to our amazing staff, who mindfully nurture and care for our guests’ every need, from first inquiry through transformative retreat and integration coaching once back home. Former park rangers lead our hikes, world-class chefs and nutritionists design and prepare delicious, nutritious meals, and kinesiologists, yoga instructors, and therapeutic massage practitioners ensure every aspect of our guests’ mind and body is well taken care of. The Mountain Trek team cares deeply about you and your health—it is our life passion.

Here are the faces you’ll see during your time at Mountain Trek — one of the most life-changing health retreats in the world:

KIRKLAND SHAVE

Program Creator & Co-Owner

Kirkland Shave embodies the essence of Mountain Trek. A certified hiking guide and a certified Life Coach, Kirk is a motivator who challenges guests to do more than they thought possible. Kirkland walks the Mountain Trek talk… sometimes barefoot.

KATYA CAMPBELL

General Manager & Fitness Director

Katya Campbell has been Mountain Trek’s yoga instructor for 20+ years, and has newly joined the team full-time as our Program Manager. Katya’s unique background, history with Mountain Trek, and unwavering interest in the success of our guests makes her the perfect person to work alongside Program Director Kirk to ensure that Mountain Trek continues its trajectory as the leading health reset program in the world.

ALEX TIMMONS

Guest Care & Co-Owner

Formerly a tech founder in San Francisco doing everything he possibly could to burn himself out, Alex woke up one day in the hospital following a lung collapse, and realized he needed to find a more sustainable path. Fortunately, that path led him to Mountain Trek.
