YOGA ON THE TRAIL

Yoga with Trekking in the Himalayas.

Yoga with Trekking

These aren't ordinary treks with a yoga label added on. Each day of walking is paired with a morning and evening practice yoga, meditation, and mantra led by an instructor who treks with you.

A typical day opens with a short session before breakfast, followed by a few hours on the trail, and closes with guided meditation at the teahouse before dinner. The practice is simple and adapts to the day, it's there to help you rest and settle into where you are, not to add a workout on top of the walking.

Swami Ananda is the most helpful person I have ever met. He has a very good knowledge of yoga. He provided me with free accommodation and respected me. I am blessed to have met him and wish him success. I recommend him to anybody who wants to become a yoga teacher.- Jogi Bishwanath

I'm going to Bodhidham to complete my 200-hour yoga training. Whether you're looking for a room for the night, a yoga class, or a training program, don't hesitate. A great team, attentive, and eager to offer and share the best possible experience. Quality is their motto. You'll be accompanied for three weeks by two passionate yogis who strive to share their knowledge and kindness. A very comfortable private room, with vegetarian cuisine prepared in-house with local and organic products. Many shared moments. See you soon!

This was a life changing experience to learn and practice yoga on all levels in such a beautiful and authentic setting. The instructors and guides were amazing. Always with kindness and confidence, they led me through my trip in Pokhara. I received constant support and spiritual guidance throughout my entire stay, which made me grow as a person. The food was delicious and everything was made with thought and love. Love and blessings to the beautiful people at Bodhiham Yoga Ashram! I will see you again soon 💚🙏🏻

While staying in Pokhara the Swami invited us to a wonderful ritual, that happend on full moon in Mai 2024. Because of his great energy we took a Yoga class the next day. His teaching was really high quality and thanks to him we started the day full of great energy. We came back to meditate in the evening and I really wished we could stay longer. Highly recommend a visit. It' s really worth it.

Questions, answered

Before you book

Which trek should I choose, PoonHill or Mardi Himal?+
Poon Hill is the shorter and gentler of the two: 6 days, a highest point of 3,210 m, and a well-developed teahouse trail a good first Himalayan trek. Mardi Himal is 7 days, quieter, and higher, reaching around 4,200 m, so it suits you if you don't mind more altitude and cold for fewer crowds. Both pair daily yoga and meditation with the walking.
Do I need trekking or yoga experience?+
No yoga experience is needed, sessions are adapted to the group and beginners are welcome. Both treks are graded moderate; you should be comfortable walking several hours a day, but no technical skills are required. Poon Hill is fine for a first trek, while some prior walking experience helps on Mardi Himal because of the altitude.
Where do I sleep and what do I eat on the trek?+
On trekking days you stay in teahouses, simple mountain lodges with basic rooms and shared facilities, on a sharing basis, and eat three meals a day there. The first and last nights are in a Pokhara hotel. Teahouse food is straightforward; the menus are limited the higher you go.
What's included in the price?+
Pokhara airport or bus station transfers, a hotel in Pokhara on the first and last nights, teahouse accommodation and three meals a day on trekking days, shared jeep transport, all trekking permits, daily yoga and meditation sessions with an instructor, a basic first-aid kit, and a yoga mat. Not included: international flights, Nepal visa, travel insurance, porter service, tips, and emergency evacuation.
When is the best time of year to go?+
October - November and March - April usually have the clearest skies and most stable weather. The monsoon months (June–August) are green and quiet but often cloudy. PoonHill is walkable year-round; Mardi Himal is harder in winter, when the high camps can be cold or snowbound.
Do I need to arrange a guide and permits myself?+
No, your trek includes a guide and all required permits and entry fees. You don't need to organize anything on the trekking side yourself. A porter is not included but can be arranged for an extra cost if you'd like help carrying your pack.
