EXPLORE: NORWAY YOGA AND ADVENTURE RETREAT
Our July 2024 retreat is already half booked!
Have you ever dreamt of elevating your yoga and meditation practice amidst the Norwegian fjords? I certainly did. A few years back, I embarked on an "expedition" to the fjords, searching for an unforgettable location for a yoga retreat – away from tourist crowds, nestled in an area where Norwegians themselves venture for hiking and exploration.
I found it – confirmed not only by the amused remarks of my Norwegian friends like, "You sure discovered the most magical spot in Norway!" but also by the recurring bookings from delighted guests year after year – the highest form of praise, in my opinion.
So, yes, both I and our seasoned "professional retreaters," as I affectionately call them, completely fell in love with this place. Could it be your turn next?
Are you an active and fit yoga enthusiast, relishing both mat sessions and nature escapades? If so, this retreat is tailored for you.
Throughout this retreat, immerse yourself in a diverse range of hatha yoga styles, encompassing elemental vinyasa flow, meditation, and a primary focus on vinyasa flow. Sessions will be customized for the group, with pose modifications offered to suit all participants, ensuring everyone reaps the benefits of the practice with personalized attention.
Program Highlights:
- Elemental vinyasa flow
- Alignment-based hatha yoga
- Comprehensive self-myofascial release techniques
- Restorative flow
- Yin yoga
- Pranayama/breathwork
- Guided and self-guided seated meditation
- Tranquil yoga nidra (yoga sleep) meditation in savasana
We are staying in a cosy hotel in the fjords that feels like home away from home. The surroundings of the hotel will make nature documentaries fade in comparison.
The rooms are simple, comfortable and tasteful. Double/twin and single occupancy available.
How to get there
The location is about 1.5 hours driving distance from Ålesund. It's a truly unforgettable scenic drive.
You could also take a cruise from Ålesund nearly to retreat hotel's door and explore the magnificent scenery of the fjords right from the day you land!
Another option is using one of the smaller airports in the area that might be an even better fit depending on where you are traveling from. Those smaller airports are very well connected to Oslo airport and there are multiple flights every day in Summer.
Further instructions will be sent out upon registration.
Please only make your travel arrangements after your room has been confirmed.
