Gigabit fibre at all colivings with dedicated coworking zones. Multiple backup connections. Suitable for video calls and heavy uploads. ### Can I really work during the workation? Yes — mornings are protected work time. The schedule is designed for people with real remote jobs, not just digital nomads on holiday. ### What fitness level do I need? Moderate. Most hikes are 3–6h with 600–1000m elevation gain. Easier options are always available. ### Is the ski pass included? For ski workations, the pass is purchased separately (Verbier 6-day ~CHF 380). We help organise group rates. ### What's the group size? 12–20 participants per workation. Small enough for genuine connections, large enough for variety. ### Are flights included? No — you arrange your own travel. We provide detailed arrival instructions for each coliving. ## Blog Topics - What is a workation?
