Yoga On The Mountain & Guided Sunrise Hike

Yoga at the Top of the Mountain

Recharge!

Feel the power of nature and the mountains as you recharge during our yoga session at the summit of Viennese Alps. Enjoy some self-care in the tranquility of the mountains. After the session with our certified yoga instructor, a strengthening meal awaits you at the Liechtensteinhaus, followed by a pleasant stroll back to the valley. The journey to the top is via our cable car. No previous yoga experience or knowledge is necessary for participation.

Required Equipment:

  • Comfortable clothing (layered clothing is recommended, as it’s often cooler at the top than in the valley)
  • Yoga mat, blanket for relaxation, anti-slip socks, possibly a block or seat cushion
  • Sturdy shoes and a headlamp for the walk down
