Mushrooms and Meditation! Have you ever experienced Telluride on Mushrooms? Well come one, come all to the Telluride Adventure retreat of the year hosted during the Mushroom Festival. While festival tickets are separate there are plenty of free events you can enjoy during our retreat from vendor booths to the mushroom parade and drum circle to follow. Forage for mushrooms in your free time or talk with some of the top Mushroom experts at the vendor booths or Farmer's Market. You will enjoy all the things Telluride has to offer! From a private chef experience to mushroom crown making, this retreat has a bit of meditation and a lot of magic to offer!
Have you always wanted to explore the quaint mountain town of Telluride tucked into a box canyon surrounded by the majestic San Juan Mountains? Have you skied Telluride in the winter, but had no idea there was life beyond the snowy slopes? Could you use a retreat that combines wellness with hiking led by someone who's been hosting retreats since 2014 in the area and has all the knowledge of a local?
Then this retreat was curated for you!
Join us for the signature Telluride adventure retreat. This will be our 10th year returning to Telluride and you're invited! If you love hikes to waterfalls, bike riding through the valley floor to a local brewery, enjoying yoga on top of a mountain, rounded out by a cold plunge in the river outside your door and a soak in the on site hot tub then this retreat has everything you're looking for. You'll enjoy free hot breakfast provided by an on-site assistant cooked fresh daily. You'll have the option to join the San Juan Outdoor School for an epic adventure on the Via Ferrata for an additional fee.
Your friends won't believe how fearless you are when they see photos of you hanging off a cliff 350 feet off the valley floor. Your family and friends will think you've lost your marbles when they see you've opted in for a morning paraglide experience to enjoy the town from a birds eye view with Tellyourideparagling.
Come solo or bring a friend, with shared lodging you'll never feel left out. There's plenty of downtime built in for rest and rejuvenation in-between our adventures. I know the best locals only secret hikes and have built great relationships with the local businesses to bring you great discounts. Our mountaintop yoga will complement all the hard work you do on the trail. This weekend is about building relationships, testing your physical and mental limits and enjoying all the beauty Telluride has to offer. If you've never been to this little mountain town you are in for a treat as it's like nothing else you've experienced and if you have been, you'll see it in a whole new light.
Re:Treat yourself is my motto and unlike some retreats where you feel you have to keep up with a group pace or apologize for taking time for yourself, I cater to those who want to show up and enjoy themselves without having to worry about a rigid schedule. If you are a beginner yogi or injured mover my classes will offer many modifications tailored to your needs. I have been hosting yoga retreats since 2014 all over the world and am eager to help you get the most out of our time together by blending a mix of culture, experiences, yoga and connectivity to provide you a weekend you'll never forget!

Kenneth Kinser Is the retired executive chef at Devil's Kitchen in Grand Junction. He honed his skills at the nationally recognized Yard House restaurant where he moved up in ranks to become their Executive Chef. He then went on to become the Executive Chef at the immensely popular Needle Rock Brewing Co. in Delta and, upon moving to Grand Junction, beat out 40 other applicants to be hired as the Executive Chef at the Devil's Kitchen. He's extremely talented and will put together a private curated dinner and drink menu that you will love to end our time together here!
A detailed schedule with activities as well as a packing list will be provided before the retreat. I do not publish my schedule for privacy concerns and because I base my schedule off the weather and activities my clients book for the retreat. I have also had issues with copywriting and other competitors stealing my retreat ideas so please note that a schedule will only be sent prior to the retreat to paid in full guests. Last year's schedule is published on here, but it is subject to change due to weather, however the heart of the activities from the hikes to Mushroom parade, option to climb the Via Ferrata and Paraglide remain

4:00pm: Check-in
If you arrive in town earlier then feel free to walk around and enjoy or grab some food but the condos aren’t guaranteed to be ready until 4pm. If you can please try to arrive by 6:30 or 7 at the latest. If you cannot be there by 7 please let me know prior to arriving so I know when to expect you. Please try not to arrive after 10pm as this is disruptive to your roommates and myself who are trying to sleep and settle in after a long day. I will email each group your condo code to check in to your condo as well as directions to the Viking Lodge. Only one car may park per condo, the rest can park in the free lot at the base of lift 7 which is a 3-5 min walk down the river. We will kick off night one with a getting to know you game and going over what to expect for the rest of the week. You are welcome to bring dinner/drinks to our welcome circle as well. I will have red wine and a Charcuterie board and veggies. Plan on meeting at the main condo 100A at 6:30pm.
