Traveling - storytelling and writing in Chiemgau

The Retreat Center has double rooms (usually with separate beds) and single rooms - some with their own bathroom and toilet, some where you share a bathroom and toilet with other program participants, but all with a washbasin in the room.
Unlike in a hotel, our guests wear slippers, make sure that they feel comfortable in their rooms - rooms are cleaned on arrival and departure - and clear away their own dishes. To ensure that the Retreat Center is not only a place of relaxation for you, but also for the environment, we attach great importance to sustainability and use products from the region.

The Mountain Retreat Center is a member of VeggieHotels.

The full board at the Mountain Retreat Center is vegetarian and vegan. The most important meal of the day, at least according to the Chinese, is breakfast. That's why we also attach particular importance to a good, healthy breakfast - always including warm porridge. For lunch you enjoy soup, bread and spreads, and in the evening you are treated to a delicious buffet with salad, creative vegetarian-vegan main courses and a dessert. Always freshly cooked and as seasonal as possible. Intolerances can be catered for by prior arrangement.

These are the paths of life that we have already taken - consciously or unconsciously. This storytelling workshop at the Mountain Retreat Center in Chiemgau invites you to track down your journeys, memories and dreams and give them words.

With our feet on the ground of the Bavarian Alps and pencils on paper, we set off together: memories come to life, landscapes pass by and new stories emerge. We combine the art of oral storytelling with creative writing to rediscover the past and share it with others.

The workshop is a space for travelers and dreamers, for exchange and inspiration. You don't need any previous knowledge - just a desire for words, images and traveling in your thoughts.
