Yoga, Nature & Wonder with Becky & Tara
October 26 - November 2, 2024
We are soooo thrilled to bring this inaugural group for a week of connection and exploration in Northern Iceland! We have coordinated all of the best activities to make this a truly unforgettable experience.
NORTHERN ICELAND
Akureyri (Iceland's 2nd largest city) has been voted #1 European Destination several times by Lonely Planet. It is referred to as "the Land of Fire & Ice" due to the volcanoes and glaciers creating a unique and magnificent landscape of waterfalls, mountains and geothermic springs. On our full week retreat we will begin each day with a 2 hour yoga & meditation practice, followed by the area's best guided tours and destinations.

OUR ITINERARY
Each day starts with breakfast at home and then a short ride to our beautiful private yoga center. We will enjoy a cozy morning practice (or, if you need a rest day you can spend time in the sauna or relaxation room instead.) After practice we are transferred to town for lunch, followed by our group adventure for the day! After each day's excursion we return to Akureyri for dinner, relax in our apartments/ backyard jacuzzis and rest up for the next adventure!
WHAT ADVENTURES??
Included in our week will be...
A ferry ride and hike through Hrisey Island, considered a powerful energy center of the north
Icelandic Horse riding tour OR Whale watching tour
Local tour along the fjord to beautiful nature spots, waterfalls and hidden gems
Full day excursion to Myvatn geothermal area and nature spa. We will visit the amazing Godafoss waterfall and volcanic landscapes and spend time soaking in the mineral-rich geothermal baths (yesssss)
On the best (clearest) night we will venture to an open spot to search for the Northern Lights!
