Wyoming Wellness Retreats for 2024
Reclaim Your Center
You’ll engage all of your senses – in the fresh air and freedom of nature – during a series of specific wellness practices designed to help you recover and get back to center. These will include sunrise meditations, forest bathing walks, wellness talks (with real-world guidance you can apply to your life after the retreat) – and so much more.
Have questions? Let’s talk.
Guided Yoga for All Experience Levels
Yoga unites mind and body in a way that frees the soul - and yoga in nature takes the benefits another step beyond.
We’ll practice gentle, soothing Hatha yoga – a practice that is inviting and accessible to all levels, whether you’re a dedicated yogi or a first timer.
Never done yoga before and want more details to see if it’s right for you? Reach out.
Take a ride, even if it’s your first
Nothing says ranch vacation like riding horseback through a beautiful wilderness terrain. And nothing invigorates us quite so much as communion with animals. And horses are some of the most instinctual, communicative animals in the kingdom.
Absaroka Ranch has years of experience matching the right horses to the skills and experience of riders – even if it’s your first time. These gentle steeds will bring joy to your heart and adventure to your soul regardless of your riding experience.
Handsome Bozo is waiting to meet you!
You don't have to be an experienced horseback rider in order to make a new friend!
Relax in the evenings. We'll enjoy home-made meals, wine, and friendship.
We'll spend plenty of time around a campfire, listening to cowboy songs.
Enjoy hiking in nature and experiencing the rejuvenation of forest bathing.
700 acres of beautiful scenery await you.
Clear your mind with daily outdoor meditation.
Daily guided trail rides will take us out into breathtaking nature.

About Absaroka Ranch
Experience solitude and beauty on a grand scale at the historic, 700-acre Absaroka Ranch. It’s located at the headwaters of Wyoming's Wind River and at the base of the spectacular Absaroka mountain range. The rugged, remote landscape is home to an astonishing array of wildlife, making it a perfect place to commune with nature.
We’ll spend our days immersed in some of the country’s most breathtaking mountains. What I love about the ranch is its abundant charm. It feels Western, cozy, and truly special… and, most of all, it feels like home.
Stay in one of four cozy guest cottages at the ranch. Each cabin features two bedrooms with a shared bath.
The ranch gives us access to beautiful scenery: meadows, forests, mountains, and more.
