Itinerary

Day 1: Dehradun to Natin village

The journey begins on the first day of the trek, where you will meet the rest of the group in Dehradun. Together, you will venture into the enchanting embrace of the Himalayas, embarking on a unique yoga spirit trek experience.

The practice of yoga rejuvenates and revitalizes your body, mind, and spirit. When you engage in yoga and meditation amidst the pure and serene atmosphere of the Himalayas, the benefits are magnified exponentially. Additionally, trekking itself cultivates resilience, and when combined with yoga, it enhances the overall experience even further.
