Summer yoga retreat in the French Alps

Relax and unwind in the magic of the French Alps, walking, biking, climbing, chilling

Relax and unwind in the magic of the French Alps. Find yourself in the quaint hamlet of La Rosiere at the heart of the Haute-Tarantaise region of the Savoyard. Known as the mountain of pleasure! at 1850 m above sea level, on a balcony facing due South, La Rosiere is a friendly resort built respecting mountain architectural traditions.

2 daily yoga classes, an invigorating yoga class to start the day and a restorative class with pranayama and meditation to close the practice of the day and plenty of time in between to do whatever you like!

In Winter: Of course there is skiing or snowboarding if you fancy a bit of mountain action or why not try cross country skiing, or snow-shoeing. The more adventurous may want to try skidoo with huskies or heliboarding in Italy! Or just relax by the fire at our luxury accommodation, curl up with a good book or treat yourself to a variety of treatments.

In Summer: Our summer retreat week in the French Alps can be made more exciting by a great choice of activities; Climbing, Hiking and walking or Mountain Biking. Or, you can amble your way down the valley to quaint French villages such as San Foy and have a cafe on the terrace in the sunshine if you want to be more chilled. The Summer retreat (AlpineYogi) is more relaxing than our winter retreat (SnowYogi) because there is more choice of activity, or you can just focus on your yoga practice and relax in the warm mountain sunshine.

Accommodation Details

The venue for SnowYogi and AlpineyYogi 2012 is in the most beautiful chalet we could find. An awe inspiring trip across the French Alps, lead us to the popular resort of La Rosiere, where we stumbled across ‘La Ferme´. It´s perfect in many ways, but the most important being that it´s a family home and has been lovingly restored to its former glory over the last 20 years. Dating back to 1877, it is a traditional farm house that has been renovated to it´s now luxurious state.

Made up of two separate but adjacent houses, it offers plenty of space to dine, sleep, relax, practice yoga and even play the piano! With a selection of room sizes & styles, we are able to offer a large range of accommodation to suit all tastes and budgets. It is located at the end of a winding road, past a couple of working farms, well off the beaten track.

There are uninterrupted views of the mountains and no neighbours to the front or to the right of La Ferme, making it the ideal location for a mountain retreat. You will have to see it, to believe just how stunning it is, but we can assure you that your stay with us here, will be an adventure to remember.
