Yoga holidays in the Alps: 10 addresses among woods, spas and Dolomite panoramas

On June 21st International Yoga Day is celebrated and the mountain becomes one of the most evocative destinations to experience yoga in the open air. In the Alps, hotels, resorts, spas and tourist resorts offer experiences designed for those who want to slow down, breathe better and transform their holiday into a moment of physical and mental well-being even all year round.

Above Bressanone, My Arbor offers yoga in the middle of the forest, among pines, larches and firs. The practice is part of the weekly program of the adults-only hotel and is part of a broader path of regeneration, which also includes personal coaching, forest baths and holistic treatments inspired by nature. It is a proposal suitable for those seeking silence, contact with the forest and well-being linked to the rhythms of the mountains.

In Livigno, at 1,800 meters above sea level, the Lac Salin Spa & Mountain Resort invites you to practice yoga in a context of pure air and alpine landscapes. The sessions help improve posture, concentration, mental strength and breathing. Guests can practice in the yoga room, open from 9 am to 8 pm, or participate in outdoor sessions, ideal for combining movement, quiet and mountain views.

In San Vigilio di Marebbe, yoga is practiced during the summer in a Mongolian yurt made of natural and recyclable materials, immersed in a park next to the stream. The program includes morning practices, power yoga, candlelit Yin yoga and activities also designed for children.

In Kufsteinerland in Tyrol, yoga becomes an open-air experience. The region offers several energetic places where you can practice in contact with nature: on the banks of theHechtsee river you can also experience asanas on the sup board, while at Brentenjoch you can practice on a viewing platform with a view of the mountains.

In Merano, the Hotel Mignon Park & Spa invites you to practice yoga in its 10,000 square meter botanical park, among Himalayan cedars, magnolias, Japanese maples, firs, birches, olive trees, palms and flowers.
