About this Retreat
Zuzanka is devoted to the restorative power of the natural world. Her path began in corporate facilitation, where she worked as a trainer and team development facilitator, before her love for wild places led her into youth rites of passage work. It was during her own first Vision Quest that her calling to guide deep, nature-based transformation was fully awakened.
Through this experience, she discovered a profound heart resonance with Nature and a clear inner knowing: to partner with the living earth as teacher, mirror, and ally in healing. Today, Zuzanka guides individuals and groups on journeys of self-discovery and reconnection through Soul Quests, wilderness immersions, archetypal work, and nature-led processes.
Working at the intersection of ancient rites and modern integration, she supports people in reclaiming their belonging. Her approach weaves together corporate facilitation experience, psychological insight, and deep ecological understanding to create a grounded yet spiritually held space for transformation.
Zuzanka is also co-founder of Nature Within SA, a community dedicated to healing and guidance through nature-based experiences.
Devoted to revealing the simplicity with which Nature mirrors our truest selves, Lolla's life path has always been guided by the wild and shaped by a deep reverence for the living earth and its wisdom.
She began her journey as a nature conservationist, river guide, and mountain guide, where her close relationship with the land awakened a deeper calling: to explore not only the interconnectedness of ecosystems, but the interconnectedness of human nature itself. Over the years, she has been guided further into the mysteries of sacred landscapes and the subtle ways in which nature reflects our inner worlds.
Lolla’s work weaves together environmental conservation, sacred ceremony, and deep ecological understanding. She guides people into wild places, helping them encounter their own inner landscapes through direct relationship with nature. Her ceremonies and Soul Quest journeys are rooted in presence and reverence for the unseen forces that shape both land and life.
Her exploration of sacred landscapes focuses on revealing their relevance to modern living, reconnecting people to Earth and reminding them that nature is not separate from us, but an extension of who we are.
Lolla is a co-founder of Nature Within SA, a community dedicated to Earth-based healing, guidance, and reconnection through nature-led experiences.

Schedule
Mornings begin in stillness, with meditation or quiet reflection before gathering for a shared breakfast.
Late mornings and afternoons are dedicated to guided processes with the facilitators, including preparation circles, teachings, group work, and time in nature. Depending on where you are in the journey, this also includes extended solo time on the land, the heart of the retreat, where deep, personal reflection unfolds in solitude.
Evenings often close around the fire or in circle, with integration, sharing, and quiet presence under the Namibian sky.
All sessions are held with flexibility, allowing the natural rhythm of the group and the land to lead. The Solo Quest day itself is held in silence and solitude, without a fixed timetable.
