Yoga and hiking in the Tux Alps
Yoga meets mountains - retreat in the tranquil Tux Alps
Treat yourself to this wonderful experience in the natural surroundings of the Tyrolean mountains. Fantastic tours and special moments in the tranquillity of the Tux Alps await you. You start the day with a morning yoga session and a hearty, healthy breakfast in a mountain hut before you can harness the power and energy of nature on a summit tour. The technically easy hikes and ascents take you back to your roots, to what is really important and meaningful. We invite you to learn and perfect the refreshing techniques of Hatha and Yin Yoga. The magnificent surroundings in a peaceful, idyllic alpine landscape with scattered mountain lakes are perfect for a "time out" for body, mind and soul.
The base and starting point for Yoga meets Mountains is the Lizumer hut at an altitude of 2,019m. It is known for its regional cuisine with contemporary, light dishes as well as wholesome vegetarian and vegan food. You can reach the Lizumer Hütte with your group on a leisurely hike in a good 2 ½ hours from the starting point, the Walchen parking lot above Wattens.
Your mountain guide and yoga teacher Veronika Mangold is a qualified UIMLA mountain hiking guide, a trainer C mountaineering and trainer C climbing outdoor and trainer bouldering indoor at the DAV. She completed her yoga teacher training (Hatha & Ashtanga) in India in 2018. Veronika is also a fitness and health trainer.
