Adventure Inward: 6-Day Yoga and Mindfulness Retreat

About this experience

Our trips are intentionally small, with a maximum of ten guests per group. This allows time to connect, share stories, and travel at a relaxed pace.

Your guides, Björg and Markús, along with the Midgard family, bring warmth, humor, and a deep love for Iceland. They do not just show you the country; they share it in a personal and genuine way.

You will visit Iceland’s must-see landmarks along with secret trails, local hangouts, and breathtaking places that most travelers miss. Each day combines adventure, nature, and culture in a way that feels balanced and real.

One evening, you will join your hosts for dinner in their home. The meal is crafted by Kalle, Midgard’s head chef and brother-in-law. He is known for creative dishes that blend local Icelandic ingredients with flavors from his travels around the world.

Each trip offers a unique way to experience Iceland: Winter Cosiness, Spring Light, Summer Freedom, or Autumn Calm. No matter the season, the heart of the trip stays the same. You will find real connections, great food, and nature at its most alive.

Whether you enjoy long hikes or prefer a slower rhythm, there is space for everyone to enjoy Iceland in their own way.

These tours are for those who enjoy good company, open landscapes, and moments that matter. We will explore Iceland’s famous sights, but also our personal favorites: the valleys, trails, and tucked-away places that hold our best memories.

If you are traveling with a partner or friends who enjoy different things, that is perfectly fine. We are flexible, and Iceland has something for every pace and personality. All you really need is curiosity and a love for life.

We are looking for travelers who want to connect, not rush. People who enjoy stories around the table, hikes under open skies, and laughter that lasts long after the trip ends.

When we started Midgard Adventure in 2010, we often invited guests into our homes for coffee, cake, or a casual beer. Later, when we built Midgard Base Camp, our gatherings moved there. But we have missed that cozy, personal feeling. For this trip, we are bringing it back. You will join us at home for a special dinner, where Kalle, our in-house chef, will cook something special for the group.

We love to talk with guests before each trip. A short call or email helps us tailor the experience to what you are most excited about. Send us a note at adventure@midgard.is and either I or one of our travel team will be in touch.

There are no silly questions. If you prefer to speak directly with me, I would be happy to tell you more about the trip. Just send us your number, and I will give you a call.

What to bring and know

Short of the story is LAYERS. Each season brings a differently level of wind, rain, and snow. Bring your yoga clothes for active and meditative practices. We love our wool base layers and waterproof outer shells. In our shop, we have a fair selection of new and pre-loved gear that is there in case you forgot something. 

We will send a packing list with the confirmation email just in case.

Please note

It is very important that you understand this: we are here for you :)
