“Tepla Gora” Eco-retreat for 7 days
About the tour
No longer do you need to adjust to event dates to rest and recharge. Starting this summer, the Tepla Gora ecocenter will be offering a permanent retreat program filled with restorative practices and inspiring activities from our community members. It is based on morning and evening classes, hikes in the mountains, healthy eating, and living in a community of like-minded people. And then there are workshops, emotional circles, movie nights, and other highlights. Everything is balanced with personal time for reading, reflection, or the opportunity to combine recovery with remote work. You can join all or only those activities that resonate with you.
The retreat program is available from June to October for all guests of Tepla Gora - at no additional cost for the program.

5 reasons to choose a tour
1
Life in harmony with nature
You wake up among the mountains and forests, meet the dawn on the peaks, breathe clean air and feel one with the environment. Here it is easy to "switch" from the urban rhythm to the natural one.
2
Balance of practices and freedom
Every day - morning and evening yoga, meditations, forest and garden therapy, mountain hikes. But the main thing - you choose what appeals to you: active workshops or calm silence for reading and reflection.
3
Community of like-minded people
Tepla Gora is an environment of people who value development, awareness and sincere connections. Emotional circles, idea lab, evenings by the fire and tea ceremonies help to create real contact.
4
Healthy vegan nutrition
A tasty, nutritious and balanced menu that supports the body and fills with energy. This is not a diet, but self-care in the form of a gastro-rest.
5
Complete Reboot
Days of silence without gadgets, evenings without Wi-Fi, a quiet sauna and movie nights - all this helps to relieve stress, let go of excess and restore inner peace.
