Sailing first. Book club optional.
A clear, simple sailing experience.
The Floating Book Club is anchored around a precise offer: a two-hour private sailing session on Ruedi Reservoir. Guests come to sail, breathe, disconnect, and experience the mountains from the water.
The reading and reflection layer is available for those who want a deeper conversation, but the primary promise is simple: a beautiful, well-held alpine sail.

Set Sail
Learn wind awareness, steering fundamentals, and how the sails work as we leave the dock.

Personal growth vehicle
Less screen. More sky.
This is not a lecture, a retreat, or a complicated club. It is a small ritual: get outside, learn something real, follow the wind, and make space for the kind of conversation that rarely happens indoors.
- Disconnect from screens and schedules.
- Learn the foundations of sailing.
- Share a book, question, or idea if the moment calls for it.
- Leave with greater clarity and a stronger memory of place.
