Retreat location
This retreat will take place in the beautiful village of Nagarkot, Nepal. It is located 19 kilometers northeast of Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM).
Nepal has a unique landscape that stretches from the pinnacle of Mount Everest (8848.86 meters) in the north to Lumbini, the birthplace of Lord Gautam Buddha, in southern Terai where diverse human cultures and natural habitats can be found. It is a matter of pleasure to mention that Nepal is also a home of the countless rivers, glacial lakes, lakes, and creeks with their common origin in the Himalayas.
As it is located on a high hill, it has a very clean environment with its natural resources and is covered with forests. It is renowned for its spectacular sunrise and sunset view of the Himalayas when the weather is clear.
At the homestay, you can easily go for a walk to the mountains, rivers, and waterfalls, and learn the names of the plants and animals. Discover ayurvedic herbs growing at your feet and learn how to use them. Practice yoga in peaceful and stunning surroundings.
