RUN YOUR RETREAT HERE!
Hiring the Asturias Yoga Centre
Our centre is ideal for smaller more intimate groups who want to be close to nature. The maximum capacity on-site capacity is for 12 people.
Asturias Yoga is set alone on a three-acre south-facing ridge on the foothills of the Picos de Europa National Park, overlooking the Gueña Valley. The exclusive location, removed from any trace of urbanity, simultaneously maintains easy access to the main road (1km away) and international airports. The center is 100% off-grid. Water arrives from a near-by mountain source and electricity from solar panels. The natural location inspires awe, presence and stillness, benefiting any retreat facilitator´s desire to offer these qualities to his or her participants.
Nearby Attractions.
The center is surrounded by spectacular natural features, including waterfalls, caves, mountain peaks, trails and canyons, all at short walking distance. For personalized exploration of these surrounding areas, we include a guide, who will be available to meet you on-site. We are 20km from wild and beautiful beaches of the Cantabrian coast; 16km from the famous mountain sanctuary of Covadonga; and 17 km from Cangas de Onis. Trekking in the Picos de Europa mountains starts at the doorstep!

Some Guided Excursion Possibilities
Afternoon excursions typically last between 1.5 and 3 hours. Beautiful options are endless and many begin right from the door of the yoga shala. The excursion that we choose on any particular day will depend on the weather (highly variable in Asturias) and the overall inclination of the group. Below are listed some of our most common excursions:
Covandonga via the Mountains
Covadonga is perhaps Asturias’s most famous landmark, a historical site with a rock church sitting above a waterfall and a large cathedral at the base of the mountains. We will walk to Covadonga from our valley, crossing Cruz de Priena, a pyramid shaped peak directly about the Covadonga Sanctuary. Once there you can explore Covadonga at your leisure
Duration: 2.5 Hours Difficulty: Medium
La Gueña Cañon; Jump into Invigorating Water direct from Los Picos
From the Yoga Shala, we will walk 30 minutes to a nearby almost never visited canyon, where you will have the option to jump into a deep pool and have a waterfall “Prana shower”. A great option for a hot day!
Duration: 2 hours Difficulty: Easy/Medium
Cueva de Alda: Subterranean Magic
Cueva de Alda lies 30 minutes walk away from the yoga centre (via view of the Picos and Ocean). Despite its magnificence, it is a little visited cave due to its remote location. We will explore its gigantic main chamber, with stalagmites, stalactites, underground pools and a penetrating silence, interrupted only by drops of water occasionally falling from the roof of the cave. Simon will play a short flute concert to highlight its stunning acoustics.
Duration: 3 hours Difficulty: Medium / Easy
Trekking from the Doorstep to the Peak Above
From the doorstep, we will follow trekking route S9, which will take us on a 500m ascent through old Chestnut forests and high meadows to a peak overlooking the Casaño canyon, Picos de Europa and the ocean.
Duration: 3 hours Difficulty: Medium / High
