Many groups come to Alta Mons. We can accomodate corporate businesses, youth groups, churches, and individuals who need some time away from the stresses of life.

Group Retreats

Alta Mons hosts a large number of group retreats from SW Virginia and abroad. A group retreat can be a simple one night, cook your own food event. Or your group can stay for a week or more and let us do all the cooking. Retreats often include a challenge/ropes course event facilitated by our well trained, highly experienced staff. We have four year-round retreat facilities and a number of three season and seasonal accomodations. Many provide a kitchen, meeting room and beds for a self contained retreat or you can have full food service in our dining hall. With various facilities and facility combinations available to host groups up to about a hundred, Camp Alta Mons (if booked far enough in advance) can accommodate a great variety of groups. Do you need help planning your retreat, ask our staff to help guide you through the process of organizing your event.
