This event is a partnership program with Horseshoe Canyon Ranch (HCR), a stunning retreat space tucked into the heart of the Ozark Mountains. Surrounded by dramatic canyon walls, forested trails, and open skies, couples will share a week of both adventure and renewal designed to strengthen their connection.
Throughout the retreat, couples will enjoy a variety of guided outdoor activities, including mountain biking, rock climbing, via ferrata, zip lining, and hiking. These shared experiences are balanced with intentional time for rest, reflection, and reconnection, offering space to step away from daily demands and invest in one another.
