View Profile

The motivation for establishing Turgleder was our desire to make a hobby, passion and lifestyle into a way of living. We wanted to spend our time outdoors and share our fantastic experiences with other people.

We primarily cater for smaller groups. Our philosophy is that a small group will leave a smaller footprint on the environment and a bigger footprint in your heart. As a participant in a small group you will experience more closeness to- and a feeling of being part of nature more than being an observer.
