Riders on a desert trail above the Dead Sea
Sun–Tue · January 17–19, 2027

Retreat 11
Dead Sea

Three days of desert, movement, rest and real connection at the Dead Sea.

So what are we in for?

  • Breathtaking desert routes
  • A hotel that spoils you, right by the Dead Sea
  • Good people

A journey that goes far beyond sport.

We'd love for you to join us again, or for the very first time. If you've been with us, you already know. And if you haven't, this is your chance to find out what DEMO STYLE actually feels like.

Every one of our retreats is built with a lot of love and an obsessive eye for detail, so that your experience is nothing short of extraordinary. All of it set in nature that is going to move you more than you expect.

This isn't one more sporting trip. It's a journey - a chance to step out of the routine, breathe, connect, and just be together.

Where you'll stay

Noga by Isrotel · five stars

Noga is designed to feel warm and domestic rather than grand, and it sits a two-minute walk from the Dead Sea shore at the foot of the mountains.

The spa has two heated Dead Sea water pools that run all year, a dry sauna and a jacuzzi. There's a gym, and the Espri complex offers body and beauty treatments, including natural ones that use Dead Sea minerals.

  • Roni - king of the forest. Riding guide and all-terrain expert.
  • Niki and Sharona - known collectively as Sharoniki, they turn every route into a full-sensory experience.

Three days, organised perfectly. Lea and Roni run it beautifully, and the group had wonderful energy. Already waiting for the next one.

Three days of a stunning experience, both on the bike and in the company. A group of remarkable people, each bringing their own colour, and it all came together into one big light of love and giving.

An authentic desert experience, full of fun, with a team and friends who are loved and loving. It leaves you wanting more. When's the next retreat?
