TAILOR MADE BASECAMP

Basecamp Verbier and beyond….

Melody Sky Photography and Basecamp Events have been working very closely with the resort of Verbier and local landowners to create these incredible and unique new adventure experiences of sleeping under the stars in this awe inspiring scenery. Wild camping is quite restricted in Valais region, particularly in popular and sensitive areas. It is important to respect these rules. We have special permissions granted to be able to provide you with this exceptional experience.

Although Melody Sky Photography specialises in photographic experiences, Basecamp can be completely tailor made and customised to your wishes. Perhaps you would rather have the experience captured rather than capturing it yourself. But whatever the reason, you can be assures to have maximum adventure with minimum effort and impact.

Experience the magical blend of sunrise, sunset, and the night sky along with some biking, hiking and other outdoor sports with our exclusive camp in Verbier. Surrounded by the Corbassiere glacier descending from the Grand Combin, the impressive Massif du Mont Blanc, and the spectacular form of les Dents du Midi. There are few rooms that offer a more captivating view.

The premium camp ensures a seamless and refined experience from start to finish. We take care of every detail, setting up the camp to perfection before you arrive. The adventure activities will be thrilling and the dining experience will rival that of a reputable mountain restaurant, with sumptuous meals served amidst breathtaking natural surroundings.

Tailor Made Trip Ideas

Photography + Film Workshops
Ideal for outdoor photography and film workshops because we can provide participants with unparalleled access to remote and breathtaking landscapes, allowing them to capture stunning images and footage in natural light and authentic settings. Additionally, camping in the wilderness offers the opportunity for extended periods of exploration and experimentation, fostering creativity and skill development among participants. The immersive experience of camping in nature also promotes a deeper connection to the environment, inspiring participants to create compelling visual narratives that highlight the beauty and importance of preserving our natural world.

Corporate Team Building
Great for a shared corporate team building experience as it would foster teamwork, communication, and problem-solving skills in a natural, stress-free environment, encouraging employees to connect and collaborate outside the traditional office setting.

Retreats & Health Education
Great for retreats such as yoga, fitness bootcamps, and health programs because they offer a serene, natural setting that enhances mindfulness, physical well-being, and holistic health, while promoting a deep connection with nature and a break from the stresses of everyday life.

Environmental Education
Great for environmental education on topics such as glaciers and climate because they provide immersive, hands-on learning experiences in natural settings, allowing participants to directly observe and study environmental processes and changes, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of ecological and climate issues.

Astronomy Education
Great for astronomy because they offer clear, unpolluted skies away from city lights, providing an ideal environment for stargazing and observing celestial events, which enhances learning and appreciation of the night sky and astronomical phenomena.

Brand team bonding
Great for outdoor brands because they provide an authentic setting to showcase and test gear in real-world conditions, enabling direct consumer engagement, product demonstrations, and valuable feedback while reinforcing the brand's commitment to adventure and nature.

Photography & Film Productions
Wild camping events are great for photography and film productions because they offer stunning, untouched landscapes as backdrops, providing unique opportunities to capture breathtaking imagery and footage, while also allowing creatives to immerse themselves in the natural environment for authentic storytelling and visual storytelling.

Location

We are based in Verbier, Switzerland. However this does not mean that we cannot customise a trip elsewhere in the world for you. Currently we are in discussions with partners on running a surf and ocean conservation camp in Portugal, a surf and safari camp in Africa, and icebergs, ice fields and glaciers camp in Greenland and a landscape and northern lights camp in Norway.

Camp:
We currently have 20 North Face tents, sleeping bags and mats, 2 large North Face dome tents (kitchen and multi purpose), a sauna, toilets, showers, heaters, chairs, coolers, all kitchen and cooking/dining equipment, outdoor cinema etc. So we can comfortably host 20 people. But larger numbers are possible.
