Limited Capacity full

Some of the most life-giving moments happen before the day begins. Ride the gondola up to San Sophia Station as the San Juan Mountains glow in early morning light, then walk the Ridge Trail together — decending first then accending back to the gondola. Enjoy moving and stretching while sharing the simple, profound medicine of wild places with good people. Sunrise in late June arrives just before 6am, meaning golden hour will be in full effect as you step off the gondola and onto the ridge. All abilities welcome.

Route: Out and back
Difficulty: Moderate
Distance: 2+ mile
Elevation Gain: 1200 feet
Time: Approximately 2 hours — note that this hike starts and ends in Telluride, requiring a 15-minute gondola ride back to Mountain Village

Begin your festival Friday the way the whole weekend deserves to begin — on the trail, in the trees, and in your own company. Join Holly Faeth for a mindful journey up one of Telluride's most beloved paths, pausing in sun-dappled groves along the way to journal, reflect, and let the mountain stillness do its work. Using the rhythm of Bear Creek and the quiet of the forest as your guide, this moderate opening-day hike weaves movement and contemplation together — an invitation to arrive fully in your body, clarify what you need from the weekend ahead, and root yourself in this year's theme of Thriving Together: Longevity, Purpose & Seva. Because when we know what we need, we can give more freely — and when we arrive with intention, we thrive together. Come ready to breathe, wander, and let the words find you.

This guided hike to the waterfall is a practice in sustainable movement, steady breath, and shared presence. We’ll walk with intention, pausing along the way to listen—to the wind in the trees, to the rhythm of our hearts, to the quiet wisdom within.

Together, we’ll explore how tending our mental and emotional well-being strengthens not only ourselves, but the collective. When we move mindfully and care for our own vitality, we build the capacity to show up fully—for our lives and for one another.

At the waterfall, we’ll gather in reflection on purpose, longevity, and what it means to live a life well-lived—letting the water remind us how vitality flows when we move in harmony.

This gentle tea trek invites us into the medicine of slowness, shared rhythm, and grounded presence. We’ll walk an easy, mostly flat trail with one short, invigorating uphill ascent that opens into a hidden aspen grove—an ideal place to pause, breathe, and gather.

Once in the grove, we’ll settle into a deeply meditative tea ceremony and contemplative discussion exploring tea practice as a daily ritual for longevity, resilience, and emotional nourishment. Together, we’ll reflect on how simple, repeated practices—walking, brewing, listening—become sources of long-term vitality and connection. This experience emphasizes wellbeing not as something we do alone, but as something we cultivate together, allowing presence and care to ripple outward into our communities.
