← All Nepal retreatsAbout this selection
Chitwan National Park's UNESCO heritage jungle provides a completely different Nepal retreat — yoga alongside rhinos, elephants, and one-horned rhinoceroses in the Terai lowlands. Chitwan has a strong Ashtanga lineage. The Mysore-style morning practice, the self-paced approach, and the direct teacher-student relationship of this tradition suit the retreat culture here particularly well. January is one of Chitwan's best months for retreat — Bagmati Province's climate is at its most conducive to outdoor practice, the crowds are manageable, and teachers report that groups arriving in January tend to go deeper than at other times of year. It's a popular booking month, so plan ahead.
