Mindful holy days 2026

During these days (again with the possibility to extend one day to Tuesday, May 26th!) you will dive deeper into the healing practice of yoga, elements of Qi Gong & Pilates, meditation & breathwork. A mix of dynamic flows and regenerating yin yoga with different focuses in combination with pranayama and mindfulness meditation promote the harmony of body and mind, activate life energy and bring you closer to peace and serenity.

Surrounded by a backdrop of lush green, fresh blue, clear air and the picturesque Alps, the Bio Arche yoga resort at an altitude of 930m offers a wonderful natural setting and place to feel good, recharge and regenerate. The idyllic region around St. Oswald and the Saualpe enrich your stay with its many opportunities for hikes, walks or trips to the swimming lake. Possibility for massages & sauna in the hotel.

This weekend is suitable for practiced yogis and meditators as well as beginners.

The menu shows what is in season and what grows in the region. For example: asparagus and strawberries in spring. Leafy vegetables and cherries in summer. Pumpkin and apples in the fall. Root vegetables and dried fruit in winter. Exceptions prove the rule. Then things get exotic - with passion fruit and dates at the breakfast buffet or pakoras, Indian vegetable balls wrapped in dough, as a main course. Because we like to be a little crazy. And we were proudly awarded the Green Toque for our natural cuisine in 1994.
