Days follow a simple pattern. You wake up in the village, do a morning yoga session with Andrea, eat breakfast, and on hiking days you're driven to a trailhead with a packed lunch. The hikes run 8 to 15 km with moderate climbs of up to 800 m. You're back at Dolina Village in the late afternoon for a rest, then dinner cooked by your hosts.

The yoga is hatha-based with a focus on self-care. Andrea is a yoga therapist as well as a teacher, so the classes are gentle and attentive rather than athletic. They also prepare your legs, hips and back for the hiking days, and help you loosen up afterwards. Expect slow, steady practice, not a power class.

The hiking is the main difference from a typical yoga retreat. Four full guided day hikes are included in Pădurea Craiului, a limestone area known for its forested hills, gorges and caves on the edge of the Apuseni range. The organiser leads the hikes themselves. The routes are called beginner-friendly, but you should either have some hiking experience or be prepared to build up your fitness before you arrive.

You are staying in a working village setting rather than a resort. You eat local food, see local customs up close and stay in a traditional house or a glamping tent with views of the hills. The hosts, Luc and Andreea, do the cooking, so meals are part of daily life on the property.

The days without a hike are free. You can rest, read, walk around the village or just sit outside. The organiser describes the retreat as rest first, with enough physical effort to feel you've done something.

Before the trip there's an online meetup in spring. You meet the group, ask questions about kit and fitness, and get a sense of who you'll be walking with. Group numbers are limited and places are allocated first come, first served.
