25th September – 2nd October 2024
Uttarkashi | Gangotri | Gaumukh
Our Himalayan Retreat is an experiential journey offering a blend of yoga asana, pranayama, nature walks, trekking, digital detox, spiritual insights, experiencing ashram living, meeting monks and an opportunity to experience the Himalayas in an intimate way.
Yoga Kiran has a decade long experience in curating meaningful and transformative retreats. This retreat gives you a chance to immerse in peace, self-reflection, learning and most importantly unlearning – the old habits and patterns that hold you back! To ensure, this is the right program for you, we have an individual consultation with you once you register.
The program begins in Uttarkashi (Uttarakhand). We will then shift base to Gangotri for two nights, which is the last motorable road. Gangotri is a blessed spot with tremendous spiritual importance. Here, we will experience living in an ashram, visit hidden caves of yogis and holy sites where sages have meditated for centuries. Spending two nights in Gangotri allows us to sufficiently acclimatize to the high altitude. And finally on day five, we will begin our trek to Gaumukh (which we call walking meditation) from Gangotri. Gaumukh is the source of Mother Ganga nestled deep in the Garhwal range of the Himalayas. The place not only holds a special spiritual significance but it also offers a possibility to experience a whole new world full of adventure.
The journey takes us through some of the most breathtaking views through the wilderness of Gangotri National Park, glacial streams and deodar (Himalayan cedar) forests overlooking snow capped peaks. During the course of eight days, we will learn how to embody the ancient yogic lifestyles in a way that seamlessly blends with our modern life and empowers us physically, mentally and spiritually.
We warmly invite you to join us on this unforgettable adventure through the heart of the Himalayas and the sacred waters of Ganga. In a short span of eight days, the transformation that you will experience is boundless. The journey is deep and is designed to reflect back your own truth.
Due to the high volume of applications, we have limited seats which are allocated on first come, first serve basis.
