Spiritual Retreat in the nature & culture

Your retreat begins at Ulaanbaatar Central Train Station, where your personal guide greets you at the platform. The scenic three-hour train ride through open steppe and pine forest sets the mood perfectly before you arrive in the pristine Tunkhel Valley.

09:35  Depart Ulaanbaatar on Train #271. Your guide meets you personally at the platform.

12:50  Arrive at Tunkhel village. Scenic transfer to Tunkhel Guest House, set beside the crystal-clear Kharaa River with mountain views stretching in every direction.

13:00 – 14:00  Welcome vegetarian lunch — locally sourced, freshly prepared by our Tunkhel cooks. This shared first meal is where the retreat community begins to form.

15:00 – 17:30  Community bonding games followed by a guided meditation on Gratitude and Forgiveness — a gentle, expert-led opening to the inner work ahead.

18:00  Vegetarian dinner together by the river.

21:00 – 22:00  Sacred Mongolian fire ritual — an ancient purification ceremony led by your specialist guide, accompanied by traditional Mongolian songs and throat singing beneath a sky blazing with stars.

Immerse yourself completely in Mongolia's untouched wilderness. Today's 30 km guided pilgrimage deep into pristine mountain forest is a walking meditation through landscapes unchanged for centuries — one of the most restorative experiences this retreat offers.

In the quiet mountain landscapes of Mongolia, wildflowers bloom in vibrant colors across open valleys and gentle hills, creating a peaceful and inspiring natural setting. Surrounded by fresh air, soft winds, and the sounds of nature, these untouched areas offer the perfect environment for meditation and inner calm. Sitting among the flowers, with wide skies above and silence all around, allows visitors to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and experience a deep sense of balance and harmony with nature.

07:00  Sunrise yoga outdoors, facing the rising sun as it clears the Khan Khentii peaks across the Tunkhel Valley.

08:00 – 09:00  Nourishing vegetarian breakfast.

09:30 – 17:30  30 km pilgrimage into the sacred forest — guided tree meditation connecting you with old-growth birch and pine, bathing in mineral-rich natural spring waters considered holy by local communities, and silent communion with one of Mongolia's most spiritually charged wild landscapes.

18:30 – 19:30  Vegetarian dinner and a shared group circle to process the day's experiences.

A deeply restorative day that combines expert-led generational healing, the ancient power of Mongolian musical sound therapy, personal pranic healing, and a rare shaman ritual that is among the most extraordinary experiences available to visitors anywhere in Mongolia.

07:00  Morning breathing session and Sri Sri Sudarshan Kriya yoga practice.

09:30 – 11:30  Generational healing meditation — a guided practice designed to bring awareness to, and begin healing, emotional patterns inherited through family lineage.

12:00 – 13:00  Vegetarian lunch.

13:30 – 15:30  Mongolian traditional musical sound healing — the morin khuur (horsehead fiddle), singing bowls, and overtone voice played live at therapeutic frequencies for deep relaxation and cellular restoration.

15:30 – 17:30  Personal one-on-one pranic healing session with a trained Mongolian healer — a non-touch energy medicine practice that works with the body's chakras and biofield.

18:00 – 19:00  Vegetarian dinner.

20:00 – 22:00  Mongolian shaman ritual — an authentic ceremony led by a genuine practitioner, calling on ancestral spirits for healing, protection, and blessing. A rare and profoundly moving experience.

Day 4  —  Live Like a Nomad — Full Day on the Open Steppe

Spend a full day living as Mongolian nomads have lived for thousands of years — on the open steppe, with a real nomadic family, far from any tourist infrastructure. This is the most grounding and joyful day of the retreat.

Morning  Arrive at the nomadic family's camp. Set up your own mini ger, understanding the elegant engineering of this felt tent that has sheltered families through Mongolia's extreme seasons for millennia.

Mid-morning  Help milk the family's cows and learn to make fresh Mongolian dairy products — airag, aaruul, and fresh yoghurt — the foundations of the nomadic diet.

Late morning  Horse riding across the open steppe. Your guide shares the deep spiritual bond between Mongolians and their horses as you ride together through vast grasslands.

Midday  Cook your own meal over an open fire using traditional Mongolian techniques — fresh ingredients, cast iron, and the open flame.

Afternoon  Learn shagai — the traditional Mongolian ankle bone shooting game played on these plains for centuries. Your hosts, who have mastered the game since childhood, teach you and challenge you to compete.

Night  Sleep under a sky blazing with stars. No light pollution, no noise — testimonials about personal inner work and gratitude  under the vast silence of the Mongolian steppe and the full Milky Way directly above.

Day 5  —  Sacred Blessing & Heartfelt Farewell

A gentle, meaningful final morning before returning to Ulaanbaatar — transformed, restored, and carrying the peace of the Mongolian steppe with you wherever you go next.

Morning  Offer fresh warm milk to the first rays of the rising sun — an ancient Mongolian blessing ritual for good fortune and safe travels. Return to Tunkhel Guest House. 

10.00-11.00 Certificates of completion presented to every participant and testimonials about a inner work and growth.

11.30   Transfer to Tunkh train station. Board the train back to Ulaanbaatar, arriving at 15.35
