Silent Retreats

Finally have time and be silent. Silent retreats focus on mindfulness, silence and exploring the inner spaces of the heart. Not having to say anything, not having any answers at hand and just surrendering to the here and now. Listening to your own heart and exposing the inner programs that run daily and lead to pain and suffering. Those who opt for a silent retreat will immerse themselves in a world of silence, come to rest in spaces that allow no distractions and spend time in places that exude protection and natural beauty. Offers such as yoga, mindfulness exercises and meditation under loving guidance make a stay in a silent retreat a lasting experience.

Frequently asked questions

What is a silent retreat?
A silent retreat is a guided getaway during which you consciously refrain from verbal communication for a set period of time. The goal is to quiet the mind through silence, gain inner clarity, and develop a deeper connection with yourself. Silent retreats are often accompanied by meditation, gentle yoga, and mindful walks. On Retreat Urlaub you'll currently find 57 silent retreats to support you on this transformative journey.
Who is a silent retreat suitable for?
Silent retreats are generally suitable for everyone – whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced meditator. They are especially beneficial for people who experience a lot of stress in daily life, long for inner peace, or want to deepen their mindfulness practice. Prior meditation experience is usually not required, as most retreats offer compassionate guidance. If you're unsure, we recommend starting with a shorter silent retreat of two to three days.
How much does a silent retreat cost?
Prices for silent retreats vary depending on duration, accommodation, and meals. On Retreat Urlaub, prices range from €170 to €3.239, with an average price of around €876. Many retreats already include accommodation, vegetarian or vegan meals, and a comprehensive programme of meditation and mindfulness practices.
How long does a silent retreat typically last?
Silent retreats come in various durations – from a weekend (2–3 days) to a full week or even multi-week intensive retreats. Shorter formats are particularly well-suited for beginners to gently explore the experience of silence. More experienced practitioners often choose longer retreats of seven to ten days to dive deeper into the practice. Among our 57 offerings, you'll find suitable options for every experience level.
What happens during a silent retreat – do I have to be quiet the entire time?
The exact schedule varies by retreat, but a silent retreat typically includes guided meditation sessions, silent meals, mindful walks, and rest periods. At most retreats, silence is maintained throughout the stay, but there are exceptions: brief conversations with teachers are usually possible, and many retreats begin and end with a group sharing circle. So you're never completely on your own.
What should I bring to a silent retreat?
We recommend comfortable, simple clothing that allows you to meditate and move freely. Also useful: a notebook for personal reflections, warm socks, a light blanket, and possibly your own meditation cushion. Electronic devices such as smartphones should ideally be left at home or kept switched off during the retreat to allow the silence to take full effect. You will usually receive a detailed packing list from the retreat provider.
What are the benefits of a silent retreat?
A silent retreat can have numerous positive effects: deep relaxation, greater inner clarity, improved concentration, and a stronger awareness of your own thoughts and emotions. Many participants report returning to everyday life feeling calmer, more balanced, and more creative after a silent retreat. The conscious break from external stimuli and conversations allows you to release emotional blockages and gain new perspectives.
How do I find the right silent retreat on Retreat Urlaub?
On Retreat Urlaub, you can choose from 57 silent retreats and filter results by duration, price, location, and experience level. Read detailed descriptions and reviews from other participants to find the retreat that best suits your needs. Prices range from €170 to €3.239, so there's something for every budget. If you have any questions, our team is happy to help.
