Overview
This yoga camp nearby Dharamshala is for those who like to practice yoga in the Indian Himalayas, who love nature or might be on a lower budget.
You can choose between staying in a tent or in a small hut or tree house.
In the morning you wake up through the nearby sound of the stream and the singing of the birds. The daily yoga classes take place on our green camp lawn, surrounded by snow-capped mountains.
The camp is the ideal place for some peace and relaxation. We will also set up a small massage centre where you can enjoy daily Ayurvedic or Tibetan massages.
The food is freshly prepared by our own camp chefs. It is served as an Indian-vegetarian buffet.
In addition to the daily 2 yoga classes, we will also offer daily a 2-hour workshop on various topics such as:
- Pranayama
- Meditation
- Philosophy
- Mantra
- Yoga Lifestyle
- Cooking
- Ayurveda
- Mudra
Our evening program consists of Kirtan, Satsang, Meditation and more. We also invite guest teachers for the workshops and evening events. For some yoga classes, we will also visit other yoga schools nearby, so you can experience a variety of yoga styles in India.
The small Tibetan settlement of Mcloed Ganj is just 1.2 miles away from the Camp. This is where the Dalai Lama and other Tibetan refugees live. Here we will visit the Dalai Lama Temple and the Meditation Center Tushita. The nearby villages of Daramkhot and Baghsu invite for small walks. Mcleod Ganj is a tourist destination with nice little cafes and restaurants.
Our two-week yoga camp also includes a three-days hike to the snow line at 3300 meters. We will stay in idyllic camps and enjoy yoga, pranayama, mantras and meditation every day in the nature. The three-days tour is moderate and doable for everyone with a normal fitness level. Of course there is always the option to stay in the camp.
