In October 2026, we invite you to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and join us on a trip to the heart of the Abruzzo region in Italy—for an unforgettable weekend filled with fresh air, exercise, and the true “La Dolce Vita.”
From the moment you’re picked up at the airport, you’ll be in the capable hands of your guides, Bas & Matteo—“Icenurse & Filoxygen-Style.” Together, we’ll guide you through breathtaking landscapes and into the warm, authentic culture of Italy. Your home away from home will be a cozy cabin tucked away in the mountains—the perfect place to wake up every morning to fresh mountain air and birdsong.
Our days begin calmly and mindfully—with deep breathing exercises and a light breakfast. Then the adventure begins: We’ll take you on a hike where clear, cool water invites you to take a refreshing dip.
One afternoon, as the sun slowly sets, we glide across the calm waters of Lago di Posta Fibreno in Canadian canoes. Our local guide will help you discover the magic of this place—a lake fed by a natural spring that pumps 9,000 liters of mineral-rich water into the lake every minute and is home to numerous animal species.
And of course: We’re in Italy.
Our private chef, Rosalba, will treat you to dishes that capture the essence of the Italian countryside—fresh, authentic, and full of flavor. In a group cooking class, you’ll discover the secrets of this cuisine for yourself.
We enhance our dishes with wild, locally foraged ingredients—fresh truffles in the fall, for example, and wild asparagus in the spring. The result is a cuisine deeply connected to nature and the seasons. Our local guides will take you on a tour of the surrounding area, sharing their knowledge of the landscape, traditions, and hidden gems, and turning this weekend into an authentic, immersive, and unforgettable experience.
Expedition Oxygen is more than just a trip—it’s a breath of fresh air.
An opportunity to slow down, recharge your batteries, and rediscover yourself in a place where nature and culture come together in a unique way.
All meals, activities, and the 12:00 p.m. airport transfer are included in the price—flights are not included.
You will receive further information via email after booking.
The event will be conducted in English.

Gary & Helena –
The Wim Hof Expedition Oxygen was an incredible experience from start to finish.
Bas and Matteo created a space that felt both safe and quietly powerful. Their guidance was calm, confident, and never forced—just enough to push me while keeping everything grounded.
The combination of breathwork, cold exposure, and nature made it more than a retreat—it felt like a total reset. What really stood out was the sense of connection, both within myself and with the group. Also, Magic Mike’s food was superb.
This retreat is something that will stay with me for a long, long time.

Thank you, Bas and Matteo, for making my first retreat unforgettable. It was a truly wonderful experience that offered both time for reflection and time for action. I loved the combination of the three pillars of the Wim Hof Method and the natural surroundings. Bas and Matteo made me feel welcome and safe. It was nice to see the connection between the two of them and their passion for the work they do. I would highly recommend this retreat to anyone looking for a break from their daily routine.
