6-Day Yoga Adventure Retreat

6 days (approximately)

The art of slowing down is not only hard to achieve, but hard to accept. From a young age we are taught that success is measured in money and with things.

Yet what many of us fail to realize is that it is not the destination, but the journey, that we should be paying attention to. To help you slow down, we have created a five-day summer yoga adventure package, to open the door towards living a life with more awareness.

By combining quality time in nature with the grounding properties of yoga, we aim to realign your inner compass. So after you leave, you can walk confidently in a direction with a redefined passion and purpose.

Located between Norway’s two largest fjords, Voss is known around the world for the thrill-seekers it draws each year.

Yet this quiet mountain town, home to beautiful lakes, green valleys, snow-capped mountains and blue rivers, also is the perfect refuge for those looking for a few days of rest, to be embraced by the healing power of nature.
