Our Retreat Venue
Gaia Abasan Mountain Retreat - a hidden gem 'paradise on earth' in North Bali

To make the most of your time in Bali we have picked paradise on earth for you.

Bali has become increasingly busy after the pandemic. With that in mind, and based on feedback from our 2024 clients, we have decided to avoid the crowds and enjoy our yoga retreat, immersions and Teachers' training tucked away in Tejakula, North Bali. 

Nestled in the middle of the lush jungle but also a stones throw away from the beach, Gaia Abasan Mountain Retreat will be our home. It was important to us to place our programme in a centre which 'gives back' and contributes to making the world a happier place.

Abasan is the home of the Gaia-Oasis Foundation, a community focused charitable trust. The retreat centre is bordered by a small bustling hamlet on one side, and by a protected community forest on the other. 

 

The Foundation brings many programmes to life covering education, sustainability, land, culture and funds 50 annual scholarships for children from underprivileged families. Everything at Gaia has the aim to create a better community and a better world. That's why we are so honoured and grateful to be hosting our retreat there.

​

The generous four hectares of land are nestled in the mountains overlooking the lush forest and the ocean in the distance. Six Balinese style bungalows and six ensuite guest rooms are lovingly furnished & are dotted around the property. At the heart you find a salt water pool inviting you for a refreshing a swim. Adjacent to this a beautiful spa room for your Balinese massages & treatments. Two stunning Yoga spaces (shala) nestled amongst nature are special spaces to relax and absorb in.​

​

Abasan is criss-crossed with walking trails that range from gentle strolls to more strenuous full-day tracks. Hike along the ridge dropping down to the Yeh Lalang river, or journey through traditional villages, temples, orchards and jungle gorges.

In Bali, mountains symbolise humanity’s relationship with creation. Abasan – the mountain retreat represents Gaia’s spiritual core and is the place where our vision was born and where our retreat will be held. Here, the earth elements of nature unite with the vitality of rural Bali. It creates an excellent environment where you can reconnect and rejuvenate on all the levels of your being. There is a free ten minute shuttle that connects both locations.
