- Tranquil Times Chi Yoga & Holistic Wellness Retreat in Rural Bulgaria — 7 days
- Yoga, Hiking and Spa Week in the Bulgarian Mountains: 7-Night All-Inclusive Wellness Retreat — 8 days
Wellness holidays in Bulgaria offer a quieter, slower kind of escape, with programmes set away from the cities in rural countryside and mountain forest. This page currently brings together two week-long retreats, each with its own character, so you can choose the pace and setting that suits you best. Tranquil Times Chi Yoga & Holistic Wellness Retreat in Rural Bulgaria runs for 7 days and centres on chi yoga, a slow, breath-led practice that sits closer to restorative hatha than anything athletic. Your mornings begin with a class before breakfast, usually around 8am, held in the garden when the weather allows and otherwise in the indoor practice space. If you would rather combine your practice with time on your feet outdoors, the Yoga, Hiking and Spa Week in the Bulgarian Mountains is a 7-night, all-inclusive retreat lasting 8 days. You stay at Zdravets Holiday Village, which sits on its own in the forest above the village of Orehovo, surrounded by tall pine trees and under a pitch-black sky at night. Rooms are simple but comfortable four-star rooms with twin beds or a double and a private bathroom. These retreats suit you if you want gentle movement, fresh air and genuine rest rather than an intense training camp, whether you lean towards a mindful, holistic week or one that mixes yoga with mountain hiking and spa time. Prices on this page start from 795 EUR for the mountain week and from 2950 EUR for the chi yoga and holistic wellness retreat.
