ALPINE YOGA RETREAT

with nature and nourishment in mind.

Set amidst the breathtaking scenery of the Alps, Morzine offers a gateway to adventure in the early summer months. The Fat Fox Lodge, a boutique adventure chalet, will be our home-away-from-home.

An experience that includes yoga, guided walks, nature, massages, feasts, community, and more.

"In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks." - John Muir

  • Movement

    Life has a tendency to throw some curveballs, and you might feel that you aren’t as strong and flexible as you were before. This retreat will empower you to take care of yourself - physically, mentally and energetically.

    You will discover how to move, breathe and live more confidently. You can expect well-rounded and dynamic classes that prioritise building strength, mobility and balance.

    We will also make time for rest and relaxation with soothing yin and restorative yoga classes.

  • Nourishment

    Enjoy a delightful breakfast spread, accompanied by fresh coffee made by our Aussie barista from down under!

    Lunch is a picnic, so we can enjoy this during our walk, with stunning scenery.

    And a foraged feast for dinner! From wild garlic to stinging nettles, dandelions to pineapple weed, wild flavours can be mighty. Indulge in a starter, multiple main courses to share, and a sweet treat for dessert.

    Dietary requirements can be accommodated - please let us know in advance!

  • Exploration

    Embark on stunning scenic walks in the Alps. Experience nature up close, feel the fresh mountain air on your skin, and re-awaken the curious adventurer with in you.

    We will build up to longer walks throughout the retreat, starting with 2 hour treks (150m elevations) to 4 hour journeys (500m elevation).

    Not keen to walk on any day? Stay at the lodge, read a good book and wander around town.
