Is this adventure right for me?

This retreat to Southern Utah is perfect for you if you are an active person ready to get out for an amazing yoga adventure with like-minded people. We will experience most places by hiking in a desert and canyon environment and you can expect daily yoga practices in the morning and/or evening.

We have planned the days to include plenty of downtime to relax enjoy the surroundings and hotel amenities. You don’t need any yoga, hiking, rappelling, or canyoneering experience, just an open mind, open heart, and a reasonably good fitness level.

You must be able to hike up to 8 miles in a day on uneven terrain with steep inclines and in water to participate in most activities. The Via Ferrata is like climbing a ladder for up to 700 feet and rappelling back down 220 feet. Rappelling has a max. weight limit of 265 pounds. You will not be able to participate in the Via Ferrata if you exceed that limit because rappelling is the only way back down.

This trip may not be right for you if you have conditions or injuries that limit your ability to participate in these kinds of activities as many locations do not have alternate points of access. Please consult with your physician to make sure these activities are safe for your body. We will make every effort to accommodate your needs. 

Am I required to participate in all of the activities?

Your trip, your time!  

While we have planned this adventure to provide a good balance of activity and downtime, we understand that you may wish to ‘sit this one out’ occasionally.  Maybe sleep-in instead of doing a sunrise meditation or spend time in the spa instead of on the trail.  That’s fine by us as long as you let your trip leaders know your plan so we can work with you.  

Most of our retreats are lodging based so you can easily stay and relax instead of participating in an activity and we work to make sure we have alternatives for anything on a trip that might be more difficult than the rest of the itinerary. However, on trips where we have a moving base, transition day activities may be required to get from one point to another in the journey.

Can I bring my partner or kids?

This trip is for adults only due to the nature of the activities involved.  Your friends, partner and adult children 18 years or older are welcome to participate. You do not need to be a member or even practice at Red Diamond Yoga to participate in our travel adventures.

I need a roommate-How do I arrange that?

If you are traveling solo and would like to book the lower double occupancy rate simply check the roommate request form.  We will make every effort to match you with a same gender roommate, if we are unable to find a match, you will not be charged for the single occupancy surcharge.  

Where do I fly into?

We will meet at the Las Vegas International Airport.  For those not flying in from Los Angeles we will work to coordinate flight times and transportation, however we are not responsible for any cost associated with early or late arrival should we not be able to accommodate.  For example if you are flying in the night before and spending the night in Las Vegas you will need to coordinate to be at the meet up location at the designated time. 

Is there transportation from the airport?

Yes we will provide transportation from the Las Vegas airport to all of the activities on the itinerary .  We plan to leave by around noon.  If you are staying in Las Vegas prior to the departure date for this adventure please plan to make arrangements to meet at the designated location on Day 1. 

Can you accommodate my dietary restrictions?

We make sure that every meal on every adventure is healthy and vegan friendly in keeping with our wellness adventure theme.  This ensures that vegetarians can be accommodated and of course those who eat meat will find options during most meals on our journeys unless specified in the itinerary as “vegan”.  Other dietary restrictions can usually be accommodated but we need to know these well in advance so that we can work with restaurants, chefs, and other providers to ensure we have can take care of your needs.  Please fill out the dietary restrictions section of the booking form at the time of booking and we will go to work to meet your requests.

What is the weather like?

Late fall is a beautiful time to visit Southern Utah with cooler temperatures for hiking.  On this adventure you can expect a broad range of weather conditions.  Daytime highs in Bryce will be in the mid to upper 50’s with lows in the low 30’s typically.  Overnight snow is not uncommon but accumulation is unlikely.  Still a morning dusting is a real treat to see.  In Zion and Kanab expect daytime temperatures in the mid to upper 60’s and nights to fall into the low 40’s.  It’s rare to see snow in either of those locations in October.  Come prepared for all weather conditions, the sun can be hot and intense so layers are key.

Transport from the airport will leave at noon on October 26th so plan your flights accordingly.  We will coordinate individual specifics once you have booked your travel.
