Retreat activities can vary widely based on the objectives of the retreat itself. For example, if the goal of the retreat is to build company moral then one can plan teambuilding activities for participants to take part in. If the objective is for attendees to decompress from a busy office or an overly stressful work scenario such as tax season for accountants, then retreat activities can include relaxing options such as spa treatments, guided tours, fishing excursions and so forth. Ideally, retreat activities are centered around the goals or objectives that one wishes to accomplish by the retreat itself.
