Guided Cloud Gazing: A Meditative Journey Above

At FitCamp Montenegro, we’re always searching for new ways to help you reconnect with nature and with yourself. Our last-added experience, Guided CloudGazing, invites you to look up and drift into calm awareness. Licensed by Visit Dark Skies, this unique daytime activity turns the simple act of watching the sky into a deeply meditative journey.

Immerse Yourself in the Clouds

When the sky paints itself with clouds, take a moment (about half an hour, approximately, with our audio guide) to lie down in nature, listen to the guided audio, and let the clouds carry your thoughts away. This 31-minute experience blends gentle narration with piano and ambient sounds, guiding you through the wonders of the atmosphere:

☁️ From the birth of a droplet to the rhythm of the winds

💧 The water cycle and constant transformation

🌬️ The art of perceiving change within the sky, and within yourself

CloudGazing – How It Works?

Find a quiet spot under the open sky (we’ll recommend a few, but there are plenty of these at FitCamp estate), dress comfortably, and simply gaze upward. The voice in your headphones/loudspeaker will invite you to slow down, observe, and imagine — while nature does the rest.

Good to Know

To make the most of your Guided CloudGazing experience, here are a few gentle tips:

✨ Dress comfortably. Bring a light jacket or blanket — it can be cooler on the ground than in the air.

✨ Choose the right time. The best moments are calm, bright days with scattered clouds.

✨ Stay present. Once you press play, put your phone aside. Let your attention rest fully in the moment.

✨ Take your time. When the audio fades, don’t rush. Keep watching the clouds as long as you wish.

Each gaze, each shape, and each drift reminds us of something simple yet profound — everything changes, and yet everything belongs. 🌥️

Cloudgazing – More Than Just Relaxation

Cloud Gazing is more than a moment of pause. It’s a reminder that you, too, are part of the natural cycle — ever-changing, evolving, and connected to the vastness above. It’s mindfulness in motion, guided by the elements.

For those who come to FitCamp for wellbeing, healing, and mindfulness, this experience adds a new dimension — a meditative connection between body, breath, and sky.

Take a breath, look up… and let the clouds guide you home. 🌥️

Guided Stargazing Experience in Montenegro

Did you ever wonder how it feels to be lost in a galaxy of stars? Well, our June blog post might give you an answer as it comes with a beautiful addition to our programs – The Guided Stargazing Experience!

Namely, since this spring, FitCamp Montenegro has become the official licence holder for the guided Visit Dark Skies – a new, celestial way to experience the night! Being located in the intact nature and far away from the city light pollution, FitCamp Montenegro is your safe spot in the mountainous forest from where you can admire the Milky Way, shooting stars, constellations and mesmerising sky events throughout the year!

The only thing you need to do is to lay down on your back or sit down comfortably and start enjoying the beauty of the night sky. We will provide you with our audio file, which will help you gaze towards the night sky for half an hour. After 20 minutes of listening, there is a WOW effect, and we promise you, if you indulge in this completely, you will experience a magical face of Montenegro that you have never expected to!

Your eye is fascinatingly good at adapting to the dark. As you learn how this multi-step process works, it happens: your eyes adjust to take in as much light as possible. That’s how you can see more stars. With Guided Stargazing, you learn how to perceive all the stars at once and let the sky overwhelm you.

To get the optimal stargazing experience, we recommend you follow these 4 steps:

Find the best place 

At FitCamp, we will take care of this for you and recommend you the best spots but, what you should do is try to awaken this remote feeling and focus only on the sky, without your phone notifications or anything that can disturb you or distract your eyes adjust to the darkness of the skies above you.

Choose appropriate clothes

Nights are always colder than days and FitCamp is located in the mountains, so to be relaxed and ready for this experience, you need to pay attention to what you wear. Even if it’s summertime and the day temperatures are over 30 degrees, laying down on the grass and being still for half an hour can affect your overall experience if you aren’t properly dressed. Let us help you with more recommendations on the spot! Just ask for it. 🙂

Prepare the audio file before going to the Stargazing Spot

As the internet connection in remote places is not always covering all the areas, we recommend you download the audio file while you are in the Community House or your apartment and be prepared once you comfortably lay down to experience the dark skies. Charge your phone beforehand and earplugs in case you use wireless ones. 

Relax your senses

Enjoy the moment when, at some point, your gaze no longer fixates, and you experience divine relaxation! Let the gentle rustling of leaves, the scent of night-blooming flowers, or the soft grass beneath take you over.

Play the audio file, but put your phone aside, so that the light doesn’t disturb you. Put it on aeroplane mode, so that you can’t receive any notifications during the gazing. We will make sure that your stargazing spot is perfectly chosen so that the car lights, house lights or any noise around don’t disturb you.

We wish to encourage you to step outside, look up at the night sky, and experience the magic firsthand. With FitCamp programs, this feature is included in your stay free of charge. Let us show you the beauty of the unexplored vast space of the sky – constellations, planets and galaxies are inviting you to focus on what surrounds you!
