Colorado Yoga Retreat – 3 Day Gunnison River Trip

Want to explore your mind-body connection and unlock inner happiness?

Trip Departure Dates: August 25, 2018 and September 5, 2018

We’ll take you on a spectacular 3-day journey of health and wellness during our Colorado Yoga Retreat!

The Gunnison River is one of the most beautiful settings to take in the wonders of Colorado.  Adjacent to the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, the Gunnison River has recently been nominated for “Wild and Scenic” designation for its natural flow, scenery, geology, and 17,000 acres of surrounding wilderness.  What better place to reconnect with nature and inner peace than a backcountry river setting? The mellow waters of late-season provide for a soothing float during this Colorado yoga retreat.  In our eyes, yoga isn’t just about exploring the workings of body, mind, and breath, but workshopping your thoughts with other like-minded Yogi’s.  We’re all about disconnecting from the daily grinds of work, parenting, bills, and worries to help our guests become enlightened by their experience on the river.  Leave your cell phone behind, set your worries aside, and embark on a life-changing journey that is the Gunnison Gorge.

Retreat Overview

This wilderness experience is a 3-day (2-night) Colorado yoga retreat.  Participants can expect to enjoy relaxing floats on the Gunnison River followed by yoga, delicious food, and secluded camping on sandy beaches in the evening.

Our staff has spent the last ten years perfecting our riverside menu.  Have special requests? We will do everything we can to accommodate special diets.  Our menu is healthy, nourishing, and fresh with local flavor accents. Throughout the trip, Emily has scheduled riverside yoga and mindfulness exercises to indulge your spiritual side.

Evening campfires are a time for connecting and raising discussions about self-wellness.  As the fire burns out, participants have spectacular views of the Milky Way Galaxy.  Crawl into the comfort and warmth of your sleeping bag embracing the respire of the cool, crisp, and refreshing air. While many of our guests prefer to bring their own camping accommodations, we also offer rentals.
