About Yoga Retreat in Nepal

Connecting souls with the spiritual heart of the Himalayas since 2009

Our Story

Yoga Retreat in Nepal is operated by Bodhidham Yoga Retreat Ashram, a dedicated yoga and meditation center with over 15 years of experience in crafting transformative yoga retreat experiences in Nepal.

Based in the peaceful mountain village of Ghachowk, Pokhara, Nepal, we are officially licensed by the Nepal Tourism Board and recognized by the Department of Tourism. Our deep local knowledge and authentic yoga lineage allow us to create yoga retreats that go far beyond typical commercial retreats.

We believe that Nepal's unique combination of ancient spiritual traditions, breathtaking natural beauty, and warm hospitality creates the perfect environment for transformative yoga and meditation retreats. Every retreat we design is a journey inward as much as it is an exploration of this extraordinary land.
