Can I take a yoga or wellness holiday in Nepal?

By Base Camp Tours, licensed Nepal travel agency (Tourism License 3121/080) · Updated · 1 min read

The short answer

Yes. Pokhara and Kathmandu have yoga studios, retreats and meditation centres. Retreats range from a few days to a month and often combine yoga, vegetarian food and short walks. Bandipur, Nagarkot and Pokhara hills offer quiet settings.

Choose a reputable centre, check teacher qualifications and read reviews. Combine with a gentle sightseeing circuit if you wish.
