Silent meditation retreat - through mindfulness to inner silence

Silence... an experience that we are all too happy to seek on the outside. However, it is becoming increasingly clear that even when we find silence on the outside, our inner world is usually still not at peace. The mind flees into the past or projects itself into the future and in doing so we deny ourselves the opportunity to BE in the moment.

Allow yourself the time to calm down and be completely yourself. At the AlpenRetreat, you can expect a family environment that gives you the space to work on yourself and develop personally and spiritually. Strengthening your mindfulness and arriving in the moment are our main focus. At AlpenRetreat you have the opportunity to choose from a variety of courses and retreats from a wide range of traditions. Whether you are looking for an intensive meditation retreat, want to deepen your practice in a yoga workshop or are perhaps even interested in yoga teacher training, you are sure to find your perfect program at AlpenRetreat!

Nestled in the Tyrolean mountains, at 1212m above sea level, the AlpenRetreat offers you numerous opportunities for hikes, leisurely walks and time out in nature. Your very special yoga vacation in the Tyrolean mountains is waiting for you!

We are happy to cater for intolerances and/or allergies as well as special diets (e.g. vegan).
