COOKING COMPETITION
Pohorski pisker
The program begins with a warm welcome and a description of the history and meaning of this delicious dish. Then we present the challenge that the groups will face – preparing their own Pohorski pisker. The competition takes place in nature, in the center of the Resort, which is idyllically located in a forest clearing, which provides an additional magical atmosphere during cooking.
Each group has its own cooking island, equipped with all the necessary ingredients and utensils. To make it easier to follow the recipe, each group will receive detailed instructions on how to prepare Pohorski pisker.
Additional comfort and a pleasant atmosphere will be provided by the service of drinks, which will be directly available to the groups. If desired, we can also prepare an open bar with drinks, where participants can refresh themselves while cooking. The atmosphere is enhanced by carefully selected music, which plays from nearby speakers and creates a pleasant background for this unique culinary experience.
Our team building program is not just a cooking competition, but also an opportunity to strengthen team spirit, get to know local flavors and enjoy pleasant company. Get ready for a day full of fun, creativity and delicious experiences!
If desired, the program can also be carried out as a cooking workshop, without the competitive part.

CULINARY CHALLENGE
Pohorje omelette
We divide the participants into teams and first delight them with a short story about how the legendary Pohorje omelette came to be – and why it was once prepared with more patience than today’s phones when they try to catch a signal on Pohorje. Then the teams receive the ingredients and traditional instructions that take them straight back to the times when everything was done “by hand” – literally.
The preparation takes place without electrical appliances, which means that the egg whites become the terrain for real team choreography: one holds the bowl, another taps, a third motivates, a fourth is already looking for an excuse why his hands hurt the next day. When the snow finally stands upright, the creation of the sponge cake, baking, filling and decorating begins – and this is where the teams’ imagination usually really blossoms.
Once the omelettes are ready, there is an evaluation, which the teams take almost as seriously as work projects (only there is more laughter here). The final part – a joint tasting – is the moment when we all agree that sometimes handwork is the best work.
The program is fun, competitive, creative and perfect for those teams who want something different – sweetly different.
DURATION: 1.5 hours
NOTE: minimum 16 people

GOURMET BURGER MASTERCLASS
with Chef Gregor Jager
Join us on a unique culinary adventure where Chef Gregor Jager, a renowned taster of Little Chefs and chef of Bolfenk and Videc restaurants, will take you through a fun and educational cooking workshop. This unforgettable team building program will take place in one of his restaurants and is designed to encourage collaboration, laughter and strengthening team spirit.
The workshop consists of two parts:
Part One: Laughter-filled Tasting Workshop
In the first part of the workshop, groups will compete in a blindfolded tasting challenge. This laugh-filled activity will test their taste buds and their ability to recognize different dishes blindfolded. The competitive spirit and funny atmosphere will ensure real fun and team bonding.
Part Two: Preparing a Delicious Burger
Enter the culinary world where socializing meets top-notch taste! Under the watchful, yet always entertaining guidance of Chef Gregor Jagr, you and your colleagues will transform into master chefs and create a true gourmet burger – from meat to sauces, everything to your taste.
Chef Gregor will guide you through the entire process – from choosing ingredients to perfect preparation on the grill. Don’t worry, even if a cutting board is not your everyday tool – with his help, every step will be fun and manageable.
To make the experience even better, we will provide an ambiance that pampers – pleasant music, a relaxed atmosphere and carefully selected wine accompaniment will ensure that the workshop quickly turns into a true culinary experience.
This workshop is not just about cooking. It is about the team. About collaboration. About disconnecting from everyday challenges for a few hours and creating something unforgettable together – with laughter, the smell of a freshly baked burger and a glass of excellent wine in hand.
DURATION: 2 – 3 hours
NOTE: minimum 16 people
Tel.: + 386 2 603 55 00 or info@resort.si
PAINTING & WINE
Forget everything you thought an art workshop meant. There are no grades, no stress, and definitely no teacher standing behind you. But there is a canvas. There is a brush. And there is wine – just right to make your hand braver and your ideas more… interesting.
“I don’t know that.” Not true.
There is no anti-talent here – there are only varying degrees of creative daring that grow with each sip.
The animators take you step by step from a blank canvas to the finished painting. No pressure, no rules, lots of laughter, and that feeling when you realize you’ve created something that actually looks… surprisingly good.
And yes, it’s also therapeutic. A little paint, a little wine, a little team – and suddenly things are easier, conversations are more relaxed, and ideas are bolder.
In the end, you leave not only with good energy and a connected team, but also with your painting. One that will remind you that you can be creative… even if you thought the opposite until now.
DURATION: 1.5 hours
NOTE: minimum 10 people
Tel.: + 386 2 603 55 00 or info@resort.si

CRAFT BEER & Team spirit

Under the guidance of an experienced beer sommelier (or brewer), you will learn about the story and process of craft beer creation, from ingredients to different styles, and try your hand at tasting carefully selected beers. The program is designed to combine education, collaboration and fun – ideal for strengthening team dynamics!
DURATION: 1.5 hours
NOTE: minimum 7 people, maximum 25
Tel.: + 386 2 603 55 00 or info@resort.si
TEAS, BREWS & infusions
Sometimes a cup of tea is enough to make the world stop for a moment. And that’s where this story begins.
In this warm, experiential workshop, we take you into the world of local herbs, their aromas, flavors and hidden powers. You will learn how teas, brews and infusions are prepared correctly – when to let them gently come to life in water, and when to give them time to reveal their true depth.
We also reveal wisdom that has been passed down from generation to generation – to support the body, calm the mind, strengthen immunity or simply for that feeling when a person feels “okay” again.
In a relaxed atmosphere, with the smell of warm herbs and quiet conversations, the team connects differently. More calmly. More authentic. No pressure – but with a lot of impact.
This is not just a workshop. It’s a ritual. And maybe the start of a new habit.
DURATION: 1 hour
NOTE: minimum 10 people

GUIDED MEDITATION IN THE FOREST
accompanied by crystal instruments
School of Light, Petra & Uroš Dobnikar
Enter the silence, where with every breath you bring into yourself the healing power of the forest and nature, which gently rises like a mist between the trees. The forest rustles in its own rhythm, crystal tones spread through the space like waves of light, and the heart slowly aligns with the rhythm of nature.
Under the guidance of Petra and Uroš Dobnikar from School of Light, who with their presence and crystal sounds open the door to a deeper experience of yourself, you will immerse yourself in a space of peace, where sound and silence, earth and light meet.
The purpose of the guidance is to establish a connection with your own source – to feel your spark of life, that pure, primal energy that awakens the heart, calms the mind and fills the body with the wisdom of nature. In this moment, a feeling of connection, lightness and freedom is born – the awareness that you are part of the same breath that animates everything around you.
This is not just meditation. It is a walk into yourself, under the canopy of trees that know more than we think.
Tel.: + 386 2 603 55 00 or info@resort.si
SOUNDHEALING
with Antonia Pavlin
A deep relaxation experience that takes participants out of the daily rhythm into a space of peace, focus and inner balance. The program can take place in a forest clearing or in a panoramic winter garden, where nature and space become part of the experience itself.
With the help of crystal instruments, gongs and shamanic drums, Antonia creates a sound-vibrational field that gently leads to a meditative state. Sound does not just act as a backdrop – it becomes a tool that calms the mind, relaxes the body and opens space for new energy.
The program includes guided meditation, elements of conscious breathing and a unique sound alchemy that Antonia has been developing for over 16 years. Each performance is different, adapted to the group and the moment – therefore each experience is unique.
This is not a classic team building, but a subtle but extremely powerful experience of connecting – with yourself and your team.
Deeply relaxing. Transformative. An experience that lasts.
DURATION: 2 hours
NOTE: suitable for everyone, no prior knowledge

WALKING ON EMBERS
with Bogdan Mak
This is not your usual team building. This is the moment when you step over the line – literally.
The program begins with a relaxed introduction and preparation of the body and mind, where participants gradually move from doubt to determination. Under the expert guidance of Bogdan Mak, the group enters a guided process that transforms fear into focus, energy and courage.
The highlight of the evening is the symbolic walking on embers – an experience that surpasses reason and leaves a strong personal mark. Each step becomes proof that boundaries are often only in the head.
This is followed by a final reflection and joint celebration, where the team not only shares the experience, but also a new level of trust – in themselves and in each other.
This is a program that pushes boundaries, strengthens the individual and connects the team in a completely different way.
Overcoming fear. Personal transformation. Awakening inner strength.
DURATION: 2–3 hours
NOTE: suitable for anyone willing to step out of their comfort zone

When the day slowly turns into evening and the last ties are tied (or the first ones are untied), there comes a moment when music takes over.
The stage – or the space between you – comes alive with the sounds of an accordion, saxophone or gentle tones of a harp. You can be led to the rhythm by a lively band, an energetic musical group or renowned singers who ensure that the evening does not just end with sitting at the table.
We organize all musical options for you – from intimate, calm performances to energetic evenings where dance steps last long into the night.
The atmosphere intensifies, conversations become louder, steps become more and more rhythmic… and suddenly you realize that your team is actually a pretty good dance ensemble.
This is not just a musical interlude. This is the end of a day that turns into an evening full of energy, laughter and moments that (at least some) prefer to make a little more beautiful the next day
