A Winter Fairy Tale in Chiemgau: Yoga & Snowshoeing

Ziehen Sie sich zurück in das Mountain Retreat Center in der Chiemgauer Bergwelt. Das Retreat Center hat 20 Zimmer mit Ausblick in die beeindruckende Naturlandschaft der Alpen. Da kann es schon passieren, dass man aus dem Nichts ins Staunen kommt. Immer wieder aufs Neue. Jedes unserer Zimmer ist für sich ein Rückzugsort der besonderen Art. Klein, fein, gemütlich.

All meals at the Mountain Retreat Center are vegetarian and vegan. The most important meal of the day—at least according to the Chinese—is breakfast. That’s why we also place special emphasis on a good, healthy breakfast—which always includes warm porridge. For lunch, you’ll enjoy soup, bread, and spreads, and in the evening, you’ll be treated to a delicious buffet featuring salad, creative vegetarian and vegan main courses, and dessert. Everything is freshly prepared and, whenever possible, made with seasonal ingredients. We can accommodate food intolerances with advance notice.

Once you arrive at the idyllically situated Mountain Retreat Center in Sachrang in the Chiemgau region, leave your stress and tension behind and find your inner balance in the winter silence. On guided snowshoe hikes, you’ll explore the snow-covered landscape around the mountaineering village of Sachrang. The active exercise in the fresh air allows you to truly unwind.

Morning yoga sessions designed to mobilize and revitalize your body prepare you perfectly for snowshoeing, while the relaxing sessions before dinner provide the ideal way to end the day. The individual yoga sessions, suitable for both beginners and experienced practitioners, are specifically designed to provide the perfect balance to snowshoeing or winter hiking—for greater strength, flexibility, and relaxation. As healthy and beneficial as any form of exercise may be, it also requires a counterbalance or equilibrium for optimal well-being. Yoga is perfect for this.

Take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and experience the soothing power of yoga combined with snowshoeing in the winter wilderness.

Note: If snow conditions are insufficient, we will explore the area around the Mountain Retreat Center on winter hikes.
