EvenFlow Unplugged: Iceland
November 9-16, 2024
Iceland Yoga Retreat
North Iceland is the ideal location for yogis & adventurers who desire an authentic experience at the heart of this magical country.
Away from the mainstream tourism of Reykjavik, we’ll take you North to the town of Akureyri (pronounced aa-kr-ay-ree) Iceland’s second largest city (population = 18,000).
Once one of Iceland’s best kept secrets, Akureyri has been voted #1 European Destination by Lonely Planet several times.
Akureyri’s mild climate on the longest fjord in the country and its close proximity to the Arctic Circle make it a must-see and must-experience destination.
Majestic landscapes, Icelandic horses, waterfalls, secret hikes off the beaten path, volcanic craters and geothermic nature baths are just some of the features offered. The various seasons offer their own additional gifts – the midnight sun, thermal baths, forest lagoons and chasing the Northern Lights.
In partnership with the only modern yoga and wellness center in Northern Iceland, we invite you to join EvenFlow Yoga on an adventure you will never forget!
