THE ALPINE EDIT · FIRST EDITION

THREDBO · 30 JULY–2 AUGUST 2026

THREE NIGHTS. THE MOUNTAINS. THE PEOPLE WHO MADE IT.

Six women came together in Thredbo for the first edition of The Alpine Edit, a small-group retreat centred around skiing, movement, mindset, alpine dining, aprés and genuine connection.

Hosted by Australian Olympian and mental performance coach Katie Parker, the retreat created an open and inclusive space for women to step away from everyday life, spend time in the mountains and connect with people they may never otherwise have met.

THE RETREAT

Across four days, we skied together, shared mountain lunches at Merritts and Kareela Hütte, moved through an early yoga session, explored mindset through honest conversation and enjoyed long dinners at Mad Mexican, Candlelight Lodge and The Denman.

On our final morning, we slowed down with a nature walk through Thredbo before breakfast, closing reflections and one last group goodbye!

WHY IT EXISTS

“I’ve skied with hundreds of people over the years. The trips I remember aren’t about the runs—they’re about who was there. This retreat exists to create that for others.”

— Katie Parker, Olympian and founder of The Alpine Edit

THE GUEST EXPERIENCE

Guests described leaving relaxed and refreshed, with new perspectives and meaningful new connections. Their favourite parts included the skiing, mindset sessions and hearing from women with different experiences.

They arrived ready for a weekend away. They left with fresh energy, new perspectives and new friendships.

WHAT COMES NEXT

This was the first edition…not the final one. Future experiences will remain intentionally small, considered and shaped by the mountains and people around them. Click the join first tracks button above to be the first to know about the next one!
