Majestic Mountains Colorado Hiking & Yoga Retreat

Highlights

• 5 days in Alma, the highest incorporated town in North America at 10,578 ft
• Choice of a 14,000-ft summit hike (Quandary Peak) or the mellower Hoosier Pass Loop
• Soak in Mt. Princeton Hot Springs — creekside pools, an infinity pool, and a waterslide

The alcohol-free positioning

This retreat is fully alcohol-free, as are all Bigger Life Adventures trips — no alcohol is served or permitted on the property or during any retreat activity. Mocktails, herbal teas, and plant-based drinks are offered throughout, and the hot springs excursion is a clothing-optional, no-technology space built for genuine disconnection rather than a bar scene. The retreat is recovery-friendly by design: we welcome guests who are sober, sober-curious, or simply craving an active mountain vacation without alcohol. Community is built through shared meals, sharing circles, daily yoga and meditation, and optional vulnerability-based connection, not through drinking culture. Instead of alcohol-centered activities, guests look forward to high-altitude hiking, a ropes course or zipline adventure, and soaking in Mt. Princeton Hot Springs — real adventure and real rest, on and off the mat.

A typical day

1. Morning

   Silent mornings with coffee and tea, then energizing yoga and meditation around 7am, followed by a plant-based breakfast.

2. Midday

   A hiking adventure with a picnic lunch on the trail — choose the Quandary Peak summit or the mellower Hoosier Pass Loop — or, on the free day, explore Alma and Breckenridge on your own.

3. Afternoon

   Time for the ropes course or zipline at Captain Zipline, or soaking at Mt. Princeton Hot Springs, with optional massages. On lighter days, a yoga philosophy talk or simply rest.

4. Evening

   Yin or slow flow yoga and meditation to wind down, sometimes including yoga nidra, followed by a plant-based dinner together as a group. Evenings close with a fireplace, big-sky views, and real conversation — no phones needed.

Is this trip right for you?

Real people, real trail: teachers, artists, travelers, and everyday humans ready for both altitude adventure and real rest. Whether you're new to altitude hiking or a seasoned trail lover, all genders and all yoga abilities are welcome, total beginners to seasoned teachers. Solo travelers are common and well supported; our groups form fast, lasting friendships.

Support & Environment

Accommodation

Private Villa

Home base is a spacious private retreat house on 8 acres in Alma, Colorado, just over Hoosier Pass with a river running through the property and panoramic Rocky Mountain views. The house has plenty of gathering space, a fireplace, large windows, and a hot tub for soaking under the stars. Moose and deer are regular visitors. Room options range from a private queen bedroom (shared bath) to a bunk in the dorm room, so there's a fit for solo travelers and pairs alike.

What’s Included

Not Included

Getting yourself to Alma is on you — fly into Denver International Airport (DEN), then rent a car or arrange a shuttle; carpooling is coordinated among guests. Extra activities and lunch on the free day are also not included.
