About the Experience
Once Bali’s artistic and cultural heartbeat, Ubud has evolved into a cosmopolitan town and adventurers paradise. Centrally located, Ubud makes the ideal base for the duration of our retreat, to run and explore Bali’s exceptional natural beauty. It’s a place where traditional Balinese culture imbues every waking moment, where colourful offerings adorn the streets and where the hypnotic strains of gamelan are an ever-present soundtrack to everyday life.
We will discover Ubud District’s famous landscapes taking numerous varieties of trails that will have us visiting beautiful waterfalls, majestic volcanoes, sweeping beaches, and unique UNESCO World Heritage sites dotted with Hindu temples and ancient shrines whilst running. Along with a good dose of relaxation, our tastebuds will be tantalised daily with an outstanding array of Balinese inspired culinary experiences, made with local and seasonal ingredients.
Each day will be accompanied by yoga and meditation sessions as well as cultural encounters led by knowledgeable instructors and guides who will direct you on a path of physical and mental well-being.
