The history of team building in the Ardennes

The Ardennes and team building seem to go together almost as a matter of course these days. Ask any company where they would go for an active weekend, and nine times out of ten the same answer sounds the same: the Ardennes. But that hasn't always been the case, of course. The story begins a few decades back, sometime in the 1970s and 1980s. Companies then slowly began to see that staff needed more than just a good desk and a paycheck. The pace of work was fast, offices were formal, and production was running at full speed. Employers were looking for ways to bring their people closer together even outside those walls. And where better to do that than in nature? The Ardennes, with their forests that seem almost endless, winding rivers and hills that force you to persevere together, proved to be the perfect setting. Away from meeting rooms and telephones, and in the middle of a landscape that automatically makes you work together. Thus, step by step, the area grew into the place where teams could rediscover themselves and each other. The first programs were simple and often sporty: hikes, orienteering and canoe trips. The idea was that colleagues should trek together through nature and get to know each other better that way. In the 1990s, the phenomenon took off: survival trips and adventure weekends in the Ardennes became wildly popular. It was the time when "outdoor training" and "survival weekend" became trendy terms. In the early years, a team building weekend in the Ardennes was all about muscle and guts. Climbing, abseiling, caving - that kind of work. Exciting, but often quite exhausting. Slowly, however, the emphasis shifted. It was no longer just about who could climb a rock wall the fastest, but about how to solve a problem together or keep each other upright, literally and figuratively. Instructors began to devise programs that did more than pump adrenaline. Building a raft suddenly became a lesson in confidence. Overcoming an obstacle together turned out to be an exercise in leadership and smart communication. And yes, that often felt as valuable as the adventure itself. Today, the Ardennes are synonymous with team building of all shapes and sizes. You can still mountain bike or kayak until your arms are tired, but just as easily take a creative workshop or dive into the kitchen together for a culinary experience. The core has remained the same: get away from the workplace, in a different environment together, and there discover how to get to know each other in a different way. Only now the programs are more modern, more tightly organized and often completely tailored to a company's goals. What has remained intact all these years is the power of the environment. The nature of the Ardennes forces you to slow down, step out of your comfort zone and brave the elements together. That very setting is why team building has been so successful here for decades. It has become more than a trend: it's a tradition that keeps bringing new generations of employees closer together.
