Retreat Offerings in Kruger Nationalpark
This is more than a retreat. It’s a return — to nature, to presence, to you.
Join us for a transformative African Yogi retreat unlike any other — held at Sashwa Retreat, a sacred sanctuary nestled in the untamed beauty of Limpopo, South Africa, on the edge of the Greater Kruger wilderness. Here, yoga meets the wild, and stillness meets soul. Whether you're a seasoned yogi, an artist, or a seeker of quiet connection, this immersive experience offers the space, stillness, and sacredness you've been longing for.
Daily Yoga & Meditation in Nature
Move with the rhythm of the land. Each day includes guided yoga and meditation, along with breathwork and sound bathing — all held in extraordinary spaces like our riverbank yoga deck, elevated wilderness-view platform, or tranquil indoor studio. Every session is a journey into stillness, with nature as your teacher and the wilderness as your witness.
Ceremonies, Creativity & Connection
Let firelight lead the way. Gather for cacao ceremonies, storytelling circles, and stargazing meditations beneath ancient African skies. Dive into creative expression with access to a fully-equipped art studio, or forage natural materials for meaningful earth art. Plant seeds — metaphorical and real — in our garden-to-table permaculture workshops. Every ritual is an invitation to reconnect.
Mindful Eating & Nourishment
Savor every moment, every meal. Our plant-based, garden-to-table cuisine is inspired by African traditions and prepared with love and seasonal ingredients. Experience bush dinners, braais (South African BBQs), reflective tea ceremonies, or wild picnics during your adventures. Our food not only nourishes the body — it celebrates the earth and its generous abundance.
Silent Retreat & Stargazing
Enter the quiet. Explore the powerful practice of silence in nature — no distractions, only deep listening. At night, rest under a galaxy of stars, letting the cosmos remind you of your place in the vast, interconnected web of life.
Conscious Safari Adventures
Go beyond the game drive. Our conscious safaris focus on stillness, journaling, silent observation, and meditative presence in the wild. Led by expert guides, you'll learn about the wisdom of the land while deepening your connection with yourself.
Firelight Gatherings & Soul Movement
Dance barefoot under the stars. Let drumming circles, movement medicine, and heartfelt conversation around the fire transform your retreat into a celebration of community, transformation, and inner fire.
Optional Wellness Add-Ons
Enhance your journey with holistic therapies, including body talk, NLP sessions, movement journeys, card readings, and sound safaris. Indulge in soul-soothing spa treatments inspired by indigenous traditions, using organic, locally sourced products.
Offsite Excursions (For 5-Night+ Retreats)
Extend your adventure with a guided trip to the majestic Blyde River Canyon, the world’s largest green canyon. Boat trips, forest picnics, waterfalls, and ancient caves await those craving deeper exploration.
