Vision Quest: A Transformative Nature Experience

Sometimes it can be helpful to take a step back and view your life and what you do from a different perspective.

An 8-day program in Norway, including 96 hours of solo fasting time. It will take place in the beautiful Norwegian wilderness at a time when everything begins to awaken after months of snow and ice. It’s as if everything in nature is asking:

What wants to break free? To reveal itself? To manifest? What has been lying dormant? What do I need to feel truly alive? What makes me visible? What makes me uniquely me? What are the fruits of life that I wish to offer to those around me?

Spending time alone in nature, fasting, is a tradition
that spans throughout human history. Humans have been marking and navigating important life transitions by embarking on vision quests or other solo journeys into the wilderness since ancient times. These practices, rooted in various cultures and spiritual beliefs, have served as powerful rites of passage, allowing individuals to connect deeply with themselves and the natural world, seeking inner clarity and guidance.

“You must learn one thing.
The world was made to be free in.

Give up all the other worlds
except the one to which you belong.

Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet
confinement of your aloneness
to learn

anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive

is too small for you.”

‘Sweet Darkness’ by David White

A nature quest/ vision quest is not for everyone.
It requires an extraordinary level of dedication to self-knowledge. You give yourself the opportunity to gain more clarity and insight into your greater calling; to heal your personal story and break through into a connection with all that is. It is an honour to support those feeling called to it!

Previous Participants Say:

My experience with the Vision Quest by Wilderness Vision is on another level.

In every way, I was taken care of. From the moment of intake to the warm farewell, I felt supported and truly seen. The professionalism knows no bounds when it comes to making things as effortless as possible for the participant and providing the best possible experience. And that’s an understatement.

I would, without hesitation, step into any adventure with complete trust, knowing it’s coordinated by Wilderness Vision.

The quest itself? Magical. Physically, mentally, and spiritually, it was a highlight of this year (and of many years before).

With deep gratitude to host and guardian Manuel.

I consciously embarked on this journey – a unique vision quest tailored entirely to me and my needs. Set in the pure, untouched, and awe-inspiring landscape of Norway, whose power was palpable at every moment! The entire experience was filled with vitality, heart, care, and attention to detail, combined with an extraordinary sense for the right moment. For me, it was a profound testament to humanity. I felt safe at all times, supported by trust, and held within a framework carefully created and consistently maintained by the mentor.

Being a week in Norway did deeply nurture me and gave a strong sense of direction for my everyday life. I surpassed what I thought I could do being out in late autumn by myself. I always felt safe, guided, its really well organised and the food is amazing. The location is already super unique as well.

The journey gave me a profound sense of trust in myself and my connection to nature. It was an opportunity to explore my personal limits and connect with parts of myself that often remain hidden in everyday life. Surprisingly challenging was the combination of fasting and the practical tasks in the wilderness, which nonetheless left me feeling strengthened and grounded. I especially appreciated the professional guidance of the organizers and the clear structure, which provided both safety and space for deep experiences. This experience showed me how important it is to nurture both our relationship with nature and our sense of community.

Its a gift to yourself to get in contact with deeper questions about anything in your life, Its a challenge that will strengthening your mind and open up your heart your truth to yourself and people around you.

I got from it grounding, Strength, Insight, happiness and love.
