Join this Yoga Holiday in Peru at the Andean Spirit Lodge, a tranquil place, conducive to rest and contemplation. Here you may breathe fresh air and enjoy the beautiful scenery surrounding you, like the majestic snowy peak of Mount Humantay, whilst letting yourself be pampered with delicious and healthy vegetarian meals. Our Yoga Holidays offer you the opportunity to begin or deepen your Yoga practice, whilst you may enjoy sightseeing, walks and sufficient free time to rest or do your own thing. All activities are optional and we are flexible to adjust our programs to your personal needs. All the retreats are private and tailor made for your very needs.
After breakfast, we recommend a short walk in the area which will give you fine views of the Limatambo Valley and the snowy peak of Mount Humantay.
Later you may relax at the Lodge or in the garden.
In the afternoon we offer you a Yoga class and after dinner, we may meditate in the open air by a bonfire.
After a relaxed breakfast, we get ready for our return journey to Cusco. Departure.
