ABOUT HAINES 
Outside magazine placed Haines in the Top Ten places to live, and when you arrive in the Chilkat Valley, you’ll understand why. At the upper-most end of the longest, deepest fjord in North America, this coastal gem has it all: glacier-studded peaks along a magnificent river valley open to the warm summer sun and a blue-green ocean vista. The area is home to the largest gathering of Bald Eagles in the world, and opportunities to view wildlife abound.

The Native artistic traditions provide a magical foundation for the town, co-founded in 1879 by John Muir. That tradition lives on today and many consider Haines to be the “artist’s community” of Alaska. 

In the words of John Muir, “If a young person asked me about traveling to Alaska, I would advise him not to go! For once there, witnessing the unparalleled beauty of that Great Land, you would never want to return home!”

We’ll be practicing yoga in a beautiful yurt in the heart of this wilderness. Our retreat center is in one of the most treasured locations in the region, snugly nestled along-side the Chilkat inlet. The center is only an 8 minute drive from town where you’ll find hotels, restaurants, markets, cafes and art galleries. There will be plenty of time for hiking and exploring the natural wonder of the area. We recommend arriving a few days early and/or staying a few days after. We'll have recommended outings for you before you arrive.
