THE six-day wild fitness escape

A CONVERTED 18TH-CENTURY FARMHOUSE ON THE SOUTH COAST OF MENORCA*

What: Wild fitness? It means running in fields and swimming in the sea, rather than being stuck in a gym. Founder Tara Wood is evangelica­l about the benefits of immersing yourself in nature, and on a Wildfitnes­s retreat, this translates as lifting rocks rather than weights, hiking trails in Camí de Cavalls and wild flow (a mix of yoga, martial arts and gymnastics).

A typical daily schedule includes three to four group activity sessions, but when you’re not working out, there are classes such as Wild Eating, plus an infinity pool to dive into. Accommodat­ion’s a mix of bright white rooms with countrysid­e views in the main villa and suites in converted barns, where the scent of the garden’s lavender fills the air.
