There are several key questions at the heart of any team building event. Which destination should we choose? What should the program include? What does our team need? Planning such an event might seem complicated, but we know that it is necessary. Your employees need a company team building event at least once a year to unwind, bond, and return to work recharged. We believe that this happens when they try something new together. That is why, today, we will present you with a different idea for a teambuilding in the mountains or at sea: a pleasant weekend in Pleven.
Pleven is only about 2 hours from Sofia and slightly further than Plovdiv. The city functions as an administrative center while offering peace and quiet. History, nature, culture, and a variety of team-building activities are all available here. You can visit the “Pleven Epic” panorama, explore the Regional History Museum and the Water Cascade, or walk to Kaylaka Park. One of the most difficult aspects of team building is deciding on an option that is enjoyable for all team members. Well, Pleven has something for every personality.
At Park Hotel Kaylaka, we strive to provide excellent conditions for relaxation, organizing events, and team building. Here is what sets us apart as the ideal choice for you and your company:
One of our greatest strengths is that our team has extensive experience organizing various types of events. With us, your team-building event will go off without a hitch. We are always available to assist you.
There is no unique program for team building activities that works for all teams. As organizers, you must get to know your colleagues well before offering them various activities. For example, if they work well together but their tasks are exhausting, role-playing games for teamwork would not be suitable for them. Instead, select a more relaxing activity, such as a day at the pool, an elegant dinner at Kaylaka restaurant, or a picnic in the park. If your team is young, energetic, and has a lot of new members, team-building games are the most appropriate and enjoyable option.
Plan the event for at least two days to allow time for everything. Here’s what the first day might look like:
Make yourself at home and settle into your rooms. Get together in the lobby bar for a drink. See what activities Kaylaka Park has to offer. Choose between a tour of the sights, such as Storgozia Fortress, or a treasure hunt through the park’s alleys. You may also organize a group workout. If your daily routine doesn’t involve much physical activity, this might have a positive effect on your colleagues.
If the team building is in the summer, after the park, return to the hotel and choose between a meeting in the conference rooms or a free afternoon by the pool. In the evening, go to the Kaylaka restaurant, which enchants with its signature specialties. Then you can relax with a company party at the Chertoga bar. It has a pleasant atmosphere, a unique interior in the heart of a cave, and signature cocktails that you will not forget until at least the Christmas banquet. Good memories are a guarantee for a team building. In winter, when the pool is closed, the Kaylaka winery opens its doors for you.
The most common mistake when organizing team building activities is making the program too busy. The event, even though it is with colleagues, should not have a mandatory or work-like atmosphere. Leave the second day with a more flexible schedule. Have your morning coffee at our beach bar, make a plan for the day, and let it go more smoothly. Suggest to your coworkers a city walk, ice cream, or a quick photo shoot in the center before returning home. The lack of a clear plan should not concern you; it allows everyone on the team to find their way to each other.
We look forward to seeing you at the Park Hotel Kaylaka for your event!
