Midweek arrivals are often less expensive. February is one of Rishikesh's best months for retreat — Uttarakhand's climate is at its most conducive to outdoor practice, the crowds are manageable, and teachers report that groups arriving in February tend to go deeper than at other times of year. It's a popular booking month, so plan ahead. Budget yoga retreats in Rishikesh — under $500 for 5–7 nights — typically involve shared accommodation, simple vegetarian meals, and daily group practice.
