View Mountain Yoga Retreats Our Mindful Approach

Welcome to Yoga Mountain Run

We create trail running and yoga retreats that blend mountain adventures with yoga-based wellness programmes in the most stunning mountain locations.

Yoga Mountain Run started from a simple idea. A real connection to nature happens when you slow down, move with purpose, and allow yourself to benefit from the transformative power of wild mountain spaces.

Our trail running and yoga retreats aren't performance trips where you're chasing times. They're gentle mountain experiences that help you reconnect with nature's rhythms, remember why you love moving your body, and find that quiet clarity that mountainous landscapes can provide.

Whether you want to experience a mountain adventure through trail running and hiking, deepen your yoga practice in mountain settings, or discover plant-based wellness adventures, our retreats will ground you in nature and awaken your sense of inner adventure.

Unique Trail Running & Yoga Retreats

Wellness experiences combining trail running, restorative yoga, and nourishing plant-based cuisine in the Alps and beyond.

Trail Running & Yoga

Picture this: alpine trails, big skies, long exhales, and deep conversations around the dinner table. Each day brings a mindful practice combining trail running through stunning landscapes, with a variety of different yoga classes.

Wild Mountain Locations

Remote valleys in the Haute Savoie, hidden corners of the Italian Dolomites, the wild slopes of the Monte Rosa region. Other untouched mountainous regions perfect for trail running holidays, far from tourist crowds.

Plant Based Food

Vegetarian and vegan food that is seasonal, organic, gluten free, and often following Ayurvedic principles. Plant based food that nourishes and supports your wellness journey. Some of our retreats that focus on journeys through more remote regions, may only be vegetarian, due to food availability and logistics.

Our Philosophy

Four principles that guide our approach to trail running and yoga retreats

Wild Nature First

We skip the crowded trails for quieter mountain spaces that stir your soul and create transformative trail running experiences away from the masses. And when we are in the trail running mecca of Chamonix, we have lodgings in the quieter parts of the valley and only run trips during quieter times.

Complete Wellness

Each trail running and yoga retreat supports your body, mind, and nervous system. Not just your Strava stats. We focus on holistic mountain wellness experiences that transform you.

Plant Based Food

Vegetarian and vegan food that is seasonal, organic, gluten free, and often following Ayurvedic principles. Plant based meals that support a healthy body and mind.

Space and Silence

Rest matters as much as movement on our mountain adventures. We create time for silence, meditation, journaling, or just time to sit and be, in the most stunning mountain landscapes.

Who It's For

Our retreat community embraces diversity, welcoming participants across all backgrounds, identities, and life experiences.

Want more than just another race? Looking for depth, community, and some mountain magic.

Why bring yoga together with running and hiking?

As a mountain lover, and someone who believes in the power of nature as a healer for the mind and body, I combine a passion for being in the mountains with the rebalancing and grounding of a yoga practice.

I spent decades working in a high-pressure corporate career. But eventually I had to follow what really moved me: wild alpine landscapes, genuine human connection, and that deep stillness you find when you combine trail running with yoga in mountain environments.

Mountain & Wellness Qualifications

I've been guiding trail running and hiking holidays for over five years and teaching yoga for over a decade. I have a passion for food and have been creating plant-based cuisine professionally for private clients and wellness retreats for over five years. I'm a certified international mountain leader and I blend that technical expertise with a mindful approach to life and delicious nutritious plant-based cooking.

When I'm not leading wellness retreats, you'll find me running off mountains with my paraglider, ski mountaineering amongst high alpine peaks, cycling across continents, or experimenting with new vegan recipes.

Our trail running and yoga retreats are an invitation to you: reconnect with your body, rediscover what simple really means, and move with real presence through some stunning mountain landscapes.
