    ICELAND July 8 - 13 2025 | Fire & Ice - 4 SPOTS LEFT | MOUNTAIN CONNECT MEMBERS SAVE $100 (email rae@gomountainconnect.com)

    Hike to explore waterfalls, volcanos, glaciers, and hot springs

    Welcome to the magical land of Iceland. This is an adventure jam-packed with days that have 22 hours of light. So get ready for nonstop trails, swims, caves, mini horses, geysers, waterfalls, elves, yoga, and dried fish!

    We're not all ultra-marathoners, and that's okay! These boots (and sneakers) were made for hiking, too. The trails of Iceland are for all levels, whether you're usually clocking 10 miles a day or you break a sweat walking around your neighborhood. Either way, exploring this unreal country on foot is the way to go.

    We’re not doing the whole snapping-pics-through-the-streaky-window-of-your-rental-car thing. This is literally off the grid, off the trail, off your mother’s radar. We’re doing Iceland the right way, eating weird snacks, seeing sights only fit for fairytales, snapping pics of you being the adventurous maniac that you’ve always wanted to be (hello Insta flames), and making friends with the most spirited group of people who are just like you.

    It's a hiking, running, skipping, piggybacking, however you want to get around the trails type of trip. There are many levels to it from 'stop and smell the roses' to 'sexy pace' to 'LFG' -- everyone will get what they want! Time to lace up your sneakers, book your flight, and meet us at the trailhead.

    HIT THE GROUND "RUNNING"

    We'll find you at the airport (meet at KEF between 8-10am) and right away head to some sweet spots along the way to our basecamp.

    The first stop is Skogafoss! This is where we'll hike (3-4 hours) and jump in the hot springs to wash off afterwards!

    When we arrive to basecamp in the late afternoon, we'll shower, hot tub, sauna and have dinner at home. Dancing will be rampant, daylight will be plentiful, and the elfs come out to play at night. Where this night takes you is your story, but this is just day 1.

    GLACIER LAKE & WATERFALLS

    Wake-up calls, a morning bootcamp, a hearty breakfast awaits before we depart for Hnausapollur Cinder Cone (glacier lake & waterfall). Then we hit the Bláhnjúkur Mountain Hike & Hot Springs Hangout. Hike: 5.4 mile, loop, ~3hrs 10mins, 1,499 elevation gain

    We head back for evening yoga, happy hour and a big group dinner at Midgard!

    THORSMORK

    Wake-up calls and breakfast begin the day, then we depart for Thorsmork and along the way we stop for some sexy photo moments behind some huge and powerful waterfalls. Hike: 2.0 mile, out & back (different exit), ~1hr 30mins, 662 elevation gain. This volcano hike is as bad ass as it gets. You can take the long route or the short route, and you won't believe your eyes.

    After our longest run, we head to Selijavallalaug for some geothermal pool action, you better believe we're bringing the music and dranks - you deserve it after todays run! Dinner and theme party is at our basecamp!

    BLACK SAND BEACH

    Wake-up early, do some partner yoga, laugh, have a big breakfast before we take our off road bus drive through rivers and mountains to Vik! We'll visit the Black Sand Beach, explore town, Smiôjan Brugghús (brewery) and an optional hill run. Oh, and surprise we're doing a Game of Thrones costume party in the town of Vik!

    Dinner and drinks at home!

    BLUE LAGOON + REYKJAVIK

    We'll check out of our basecamp at 9am and go straight to Blue Lagoon to rest and recover after running through all those endless waterfalls. Later we'll all head into Reykjavik to our final home base, settle in and hit the town hard for all it's got, including the capital's famous hot dog stand!

    BACK TO REALITY

    We will be checking out before 11am and making our way back to the airport. Transportation to the airport is not provided but we will be grouping people together based on departure times to make things easiest.

    Until next time… or until we all see each other at the next party because this friendship just started!

    experience it all

    • Las Leñas–Mendoza, Argentina
    Register

    Join Saveur the Journey for a Strong Intermediate/Advanced level Southern Hemisphere Skiing and Boarding trip to the Mendoza Province of Argentina in August 2025. Escape the hot summer stateside and travel across the equator to chase an endless winter with this small-group South American ski trip to the high-altitude resort of Las Leñas in the Andes. With a base at 7,350 ft (2240m) and the lifts topping out at 11,250ft (3430m), Las Leñas provides almost 4ooo ft of vertical and is a massive resort, with more total skiable terrain than Whistler, Canada. Las Leñas has a good mix of difficulty levels, from great intermediate runs with superb views, all the way to extreme steeps, bowls, and couloirs. Due to its high altitude, the quality of the powder up high is considered some of the best in South America. The resort is geographically remote (about four-and-half hours drive from Mendoza city) so it takes some work to get there, but the payoff is a stunning location with potentially limited competition for the more advanced powder lines.

    A local Argentinian guide and ski instructor will get you to the front of the lift lines and show you the best powder stashes and where to experience superb Argentinian wines, pampas beef, chocolate, and culture.

    DATE: August 8-16, 2025

    COST: $4,150/pp USD **MC Members get $500 off**

    TRIP PACKAGE INCLUDES

    • All accommodations (double occupancy)

    • 6 Days of Lift Tickets at Las Leñas

    • Optional backcountry/ sidecountry touring with IFMGA certified ski guide

    • Most Meals (8 breakfasts, 4 lunches, 6 dinners)

    From the Japanese Alps to the Mount Fuji region and beyond, explore this gem of a lesser-known riding destination and meet the locals behind Japan’s emerging MTB scene. 

    Join evo and an incredible cast of guides & local hosts on a one-of-a-kind, 8-day mountain biking adventure around the island of Honshu. In Hakuba, we’ll explore Iwatake Bike Park and the area’s best trail riding, with the newly renovated evo Hotel Hakuba as our home base. We’ll then make our way south to a secret spot in the Minami Alps and learn from the local legend stewarding the region & quietly building its trails. From here, we’ll ride Yamanashi, on the eastern side of the Alps, as well as Fujiten Bike Park in the jaw-droppingly beautiful Mount Fuji region. As a sweet bonus, you’ll get demo bikes for the week from Specialized Bicycles. 

    On this journey, we’ll stay in well-appointed hotels and local ryokans, with access to incredible local food and rich, authentic culture. Some of these regions will be more remote and offer a peek into a side of Japan few get to see. 

    Expect a mix of bike park and trail riding. The bike parks have something for everyone, including lots of flow as well as (optional) technical and jump trails. The trail riding days consist of mainly flowy singletrack with long loamy descents. Most of the trail riding involves shuttles up into the mountains, so it will be 95% downhill with some pedaling to link up trails.  

    *Please note this trip is recommended for intermediate and above mountain bikers. Many of the trails in the Japanese Alps have long descents, requiring a good base level of fitness.

    Cost: $3,450/pp USD

    Primal Reset is a men’s-only experience built to challenge your body, fuel your mind, and forge real connection—through movement, adventure, and clean living. Set in a remote surf beach town we’ve returned to for nearly a decade, this isn’t a vacation—it’s a way of life. Picture sunrise workouts in our jungle gym, calisthenics on the deck, cold plunges, daily surf sessions, and spearfishing off the reef points. You’ll train hard, eat clean, and tap into something primal—with a crew of men doing the same.

    We’ve got the place to ourselves, and spots are limited to just 18 men to keep it tight, intentional, and real. Boat days take us to secret beaches. Bonfires crackle under star-filled skies. The food? Sourced from right here—meat from grazing cattle nearby, eggs and chickens from friends down the road, raw cow’s milk in the morning, and yes—even bull testicle ceviche for the bold. No seed oils. No shortcuts. Our private chef keeps it organic or local whenever possible, with smoothies and fresh juices waiting after your workout.

    This isn’t about breaking your routine—it’s about building one that actually works. You’ll move, breathe, laugh, and push past comfort. You’ll feel strong, clear, and connected—to nature, to others, and to yourself. This is Primal Reset—and it’s exactly what you’ve been needing.
