Paths to serenity - yoga, hiking and meditation in Chiemgau

Serenity is a quality of mind that makes our lives easier and more joyful. The exercises of yoga, silent meditation and hiking in the mountains help us to develop this inner attitude and then establish it in everyday life.

Retreat to the Mountain Retreat Center in the Chiemgau mountains. The Retreat Center has 20 rooms with views of the impressive natural landscape of the Alps. It can happen that you are amazed out of nowhere. Again and again. Each of our rooms is a special kind of retreat in its own right. Small, fine, cozy.

The full board at the Mountain Retreat Center is vegetarian and vegan. The most important meal of the day, at least according to the Chinese, is breakfast. That's why we also attach particular importance to a good, healthy breakfast - always including warm porridge. For lunch you enjoy soup, bread and spreads, and in the evening you are treated to a delicious buffet with salad, creative vegetarian-vegan main courses and a dessert. Always freshly cooked and as seasonal as possible. Intolerances can be catered for by prior arrangement.

We have a natural need for peace and concentration and individual strategies to fulfill this need in our daily lives. This retreat offers an introduction to the technique of meditation, which aims to develop compassion towards all beings and insight into the primordial nature of all phenomena.

On the cushion, on the yoga mat and while walking in nature, our busy minds can calm down and collect themselves. A period of the day should be spent in silence to support this process. We can share our experiences and selected texts serve as a source of inspiration. The meditation instructions guide our minds further and further into silence. The exercises on the yoga mat have a balancing effect and special exercises for the hip opening and the spine make sitting on the cushion easier. Breathing exercises provide us with vitality and train our attention to the fine details of the breath. Walking in nature is a refreshing meditation connected with the elements.

The Mountain Retreat Center is located in the German Chiemgau region, on the border with Austria.
