Winter Glow - Shine & Slow

Slow down. Breathe deep. Let winter wrap you in its quiet magic…

This is our repeat retreat we create during the beautiful Festivity period the build up to Christmas holidays. 

Join us this winter in the heart of the Alps for a refreshing escape that blends outdoor adventure with deep relaxation. Set in the beautiful ski resort of Pila, this retreat offers the perfect mix of skiing or snowshoeing during the day, and awakening and restorative yoga in the morning and evenings to stretch, unwind, and recharge.

Whether you’re an experienced skier or completely new to the snow, we’ve created a space that’s welcoming and relaxed — with options for all levels and no pressure to do everything. It’s all about being outdoors, connecting with others, and coming home with a clearer mind and a lighter heart.

Expect good food, great company, mountain views, and a healthy dose of fun. Open to men and women, solo travellers, friends, couples — come as you are!

Each day begins with morning yoga and meditation, welcoming the day with stillness and intention. After the regenerating yoga sessions, we invite you to hit the slopes with freshly pisted snow — skiing or gently exploring the forests on guided snowshoe walks. Feel nature’s healing power in the purity, the sunshine, the snow, the scenery of the mountain peaks, the movement and in the stillness.

Pila is a lovely friendly ski resort with stunning views over the Mont Blanc, Matterhorn, Grand Combin mountains. All level of skiers find their way around on the total of 70 km slopes and all slopes arrive centre of Pila, where our hotel is situated. With the new gondola even the non skiers can reach the top of the mountain to admire the magnificent views over the Alps. If you do not feel like skiing, we will adventure out on snowshoes through the forest routs to have lunch in a mountain hut, where it is possible to meet up with the skiers. 

After our morning adventures on the snow, there will be space for restoring afternoon yoga, relaxing in the amazing spa while from the jacuzzi and the sauna you can admire the Mont Blanc mountain. Or you can book a holistic massage with Virna and a Bowen treatment with Anita. One afternoon, we will visit the Christmas market in the 2050 years old roman Aosta, wander the cobbled streets lit with fairy lights, taste some delicious mulled wine and cheese at the market.

On the last evening we finish our journey with the closing circle, Nida Yoga and Cocoa ceremony to reflect, relax and restore our body, mind and soul.

Let this be your pause before the holidays — a sacred time to rest, relax, have fun and gather warmth from the inside out.

To keep the intimacy of our retreats we take a maximum of 15 people.

We can offer en-suite double room with single occupancy and twin bedrooms en-suite, with different prices to suit your budget and preference. You can even have the view over the Mont Blanc Mountain from your bedroom!
