About this trip
We come here twice a year to rejuvenate! Join us for a weekend of renewal and relaxation at Sierra Hot Springs, a location known for its healing properties. Start your day with guided morning meditation, followed by a mindful all levels yoga class. During free times, take a dip in the invigorating hot springs, hike through the enchanted forest, receive a massage, or simply relax with a book in the historic lodge.
Savor mouthwatering breakfast, lunch, and dinner prepared by the talented chefs in the Philosophy Cafe, included as part of this wellness retreat. Rustic accommodations include cozy rooms within the historic main lodge, The Globe Hotel, or you may bring your tent and camp under the stars.
This retreat is not to be missed! Leave this sacred land feeling nourished, refreshed, and grounded.
