About this selection
The Swiss Alps' iconic peaks, glaciers, and immaculate mountain villages provide Europe's most pristine high-altitude setting for restorative retreat. Vipassana meditation in Swiss Alps — often conducted in silence for 7–10 days — takes on additional depth in this setting. The retreat context removes the obstacles that urban life creates for sustained insight practice. August is one of Swiss Alps's best months for retreat — Alps's climate is at its most conducive to outdoor practice, the crowds are manageable, and teachers report that groups arriving in August tend to go deeper than at other times of year. It's a popular booking month, so plan ahead.
