Kathmandu · 19 days · From USD 3300
This 19-day immersive experience begins in the spiritually charged atmosphere of Boudha, Kathmandu, home to the magnificent Boudhanath Stupa—a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most important pilgrimage centres for Tibetan Buddhists. Here, surrounded by the rhythmic chanting of monks and the gentle spin of prayer wheels, you'll set your intentions and open yourself to the transformative journey ahead.
The adventure deepens as you explore ancient Kathmandu during the magical Tihar Festival, witnessing the city adorned with lights and experiencing the warmth of Nepalese hospitality at its most celebratory. Then, the mountains call. For 11 days, you'll trek along a carefully chosen low-tourism trail through the Himalayas, walking 3-6 hours daily through landscapes that inspire awe and introspection. Several days offer spectacular views of Mount Everest, reminding you of nature's magnificent grandeur.
Each morning begins with Qigong and breathing practices, grounding you in your body and preparing you for the day's journey. Sound healing sessions unfold spontaneously in magical spots discovered along the way—perhaps beside a rushing mountain stream, in a sun-dappled forest clearing, or overlooking snow-capped peaks. The unique 'green string' system allows you to signal your wish for silent walking, creating space for deep communion with nature and self.
Two integration days built into the trek honour your body's need for rest, while extended time in a traditional mountain village offers authentic connection with local communities and their living traditions. The journey concludes with a powerful full moon ceremony at a sacred temple in Pashupatinath and a legendary Nepalese dinner ritual at the renowned Dwarika's Hotel—a fitting celebration of the transformation you've undergone.
Throughout, you're supported by Mirabell's decades of Himalayan experience and her profound understanding of sound healing aligned with the chakras. This is a rare opportunity to disconnect from the modern world and reconnect with ancient wisdom, your authentic self, and the raw beauty of one of Earth's most sacred landscapes.
