To understand nature is to understand yourself.
We are part of nature. This realization raises an important question: what is your role in the wider context of life?
The Spirit of the Wild programme encourages us to pause, reflect, and reconnect with ourselves and nature.
Change is within reach.
The Spirit of the Wild programme allows us to connect with and learn from nature, through deep personal experience. It is key to transforming our thoughts, actions and approach to an inclusive way of living, in communion with all life. This allows for a personal inner transformation and commitment towards a sustainable future.
Princess Irene of the Netherlands
For over 30 years, Princess Irene of the Netherlands has been committed to share her vision.
She created Spirit of the Wild at Bergplaas Nature Reserve in South Africa in 2002. Since 2023 Spirit of the Wild started courses in Europe. Carrying the same core values and experiences forward, the program sought to replicate its success in diverse settings, bringing its transformative journey to new environments. By venturing into these new territories, Spirit of The Wild embraced the opportunity to cultivate a deeper connection between people and nature on a global scale.
“Nature is where we connect to our own true nature and recognise that solving the environmental crisis starts with a commitment to deep reconciliation through the heart.”
— Princess Irene of the Netherlands
