This wellness experience combines yoga and meditation sessions in the heart of the Anaga Rural Park, the mountainous massif at the northeastern tip of Tenerife. The environment is dominated by laurel forest, a humid subtropical forest relic from the Tertiary era that today only survives in the Canary Islands, Madeira, and the Azores. Anaga was declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve on June 9, 2015, for having the highest concentration of endemic species in Europe.

The misty landscape, trails, and traditional hamlets make the area an ideal natural setting for outdoor practice and disconnection.
