If you’re hoping to truly rejuvenate and reward your team, you need only look inwards—and exhale outwards. We’ve all felt the mental and physical benefits of being in the great outdoors, breathing in pristine alpine air, soaking up lush green forest or plunging into azure blue waters. 

The body of research backing up these experiences is growing—being in nature is now associated with improved cardiovascular health, better memory and reduced stress hormones.  

So, when hosting your next incentive, it’s the natural choice to take your team away from the chaos of city life and into the great outdoors, where they can decompress, rest and renew their strength, all while making memories they will cherish forever.  

Consider Canada—our breathtaking natural beauty and stunning wide open spaces, matched by our open hearts and open minds, offer unforgettable experiences in the great outdoors that will wow your team, from meditative forest bathing to exhilarating cold plunges. 

From coast to coast to coast, you’ll find luxury wilderness locations, like Trout Point Lodge, nestled in the Tobeatic Wilderness in Nova Scotia. 

Here, forest bathing isn’t the only way your team can get in touch with nature. There are opportunities for canoeing and kayaking, relaxing in the lodge’s outdoor barrel sauna and wood-fired hot tub and, the particularly exceptional, expert-guided stargazing experience. 

Trout Point Lodge is located in the UNESCO Southwest Nova Biosphere Reserve, beneath some of the darkest skies in North America, so your team can escape everyday stresses in peaceful tranquility, marvelling at their place in the universe under the gleaming galaxy above. 

When it comes to destinations for a cold dip, Canada has plenty. 

From Lake Louise in Alberta, where groups can take the plunge into world-famous turquoise waters surrounded by the snow-capped Rocky Mountains, to the remote Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge, in beautiful British Columbia. 

At Clayoquot, your team can take their polar plunge to new, invigorating heights with a unique helicopter excursion.  

After a breathtaking flight above the glorious mountains surrounding the lodge, your team will gently land atop a pristine peak and, under the guidance of a wellness professional, take a mindful plunge into an untouched, crystal-clear alpine lake in complete stillness and peace.  

Clayoquot’s lodge is accessible only by seaplane or boat—the journey is a true departure from the everyday. Here in this magnificent natural environment, you can treat your team to a myriad of  activities, such as whale watching, canyoning or simply enjoying the world-class spa.  

As the second biggest country in the world, with the world’s longest coastline, and boundless, awe-inspiring natural beauty, Canada offers an astonishing array of incentives in the great outdoors to revitalize groups of all sizes—making it the natural reward for your team.
