Himalayas Yoga & Trek Retreat 2024

“Anam Yoga what can one say about these amazing people. Their kindness, helpfulness, experience and genuineness shines through every day. Sarah & Orla are two wonderful caring souls who make it their mission in their gentle way to ensure you see Nepal and all its wonders from a genuine manageable trek. Their daily yoga and meditation ensures that your body and soul face the new day with energy and limberness. Their partnership with Happyland Treks is icing on the cake. What a marvelous company I have never felt as safe and treated with such kindness no matter the speed I walked. Encouragement and laughter rang in the air every single day. I will be back.”

“You two are just the best humans! Full of knowledge, kept us all safe, entertained and your organisation and coordination was seamless. I already can’t wait to see how anam will grow and already looking forward to the group reunion in Clare. Thanks so much for everything - the yoga was great!!”

“You guys did something incredible, and gave me and I am sure everyone else such a profound experience. It was so special!!!! You held space in such a natural way at ease just checking in each day informally and hanging out. Your relationship with happy was such a huge addition to the experience and the feeling of it all. His intention and yours was so strong it made it such a unique experience. I felt so lifted by the group and found myself again in the mountains, reconnecting with the part of me that I had lost sight of for a while. It gave me so much time to disconnect, tune into myself and really rest mentally. There isn't a thing I would change and the cold nights and beautiful sunrises outside with yoga were all part of the fun!”

“The yoga and hiking trip with Anam definitely exceeded my expectations! Everything was so well run, the knowledge of the guides was amazing and all those involved in the running of the trekking and yoga were just so lovely to be around, always willing to support and gave us so much encouragement. The scenery everyday was varied and so beautiful. It was a trip of a lifetime ❤️”

“Don’t spend too long thinking about going to Nepal with Anam Yoga & Happyland treks, just say Yes ! The experience will be so much more than you imagined ! From beginning to end you can rest assured you will be in safe hands , experiencing the beautiful Himalayas at your own pace and tuning in to the world around you while deepening your yoga practice physically & spiritually. The Nepalese people leave a lasting impression on you ! It’s a trip of a lifetime with the very best crew.”

“I loved the special bonds and new friendships we were able to forge on this trip. From the amazing guides @Happylandtreks to our 2 wonderful yoga instructors Sarah & Orla and of course the extraordinarily kind Nepalese people we met along the way, this was nourishmentat at best on this life affirming journey”.

Fuck me, Morning Yoga is great" In all seriousness, it was a wonderful trip. It surpassed expectations and I really got the chance to switch off and enjoy my surroundings. The team really took out all the stress involved in planning , so we could just walk. The positive attitudes of Sarah and Orla was infectious, they really brought the group together. The balance between Yoga and trekking is a match made in heaven. The Yoga helped keep the muscles in check and counteracted all the steps climbed. I've been to many Yoga classes, but Orla and Sarah are stand out teachers. I'd love to go back. I'll have to try to implement morning yoga.

Both Sarah and Orla are wonderful hosts. They organised everything to a "T" but it was done in such an understated & relaxed way, I didn't feel like every minute was planned. They are both such joyous and easy company It was like hanging out with mates (which they are now).

I just couldn't recommend them both and this trip highly enough. It's perfect for the likes of me - someone who is looking for something challenging and different but doesn't know where to begin! The trip was life changing.

“Honestly it was the best holiday, loved it so much. Would happily come back with ye again”

It was everything I expected and more. My only regret is I didn't stay longer. The place is beautiful and I had an amazing time.

You get to hike through beautiful forests and up wonderful mountains, you get do yoga with the sun rising over the himalayas, you get to eat copious amounts of tasty food at a fraction of the cost in Ireland, and there's more sun, less rain, feck all wind; what's not to recommend?
