Hike & Yoga

Discover our Hike & Yoga event

Transportation included and provided in partnership with Parkbus and Merrell. Meet at Walmart (Near Namur Metro), a chartered bus to the Matawinie region. We will begin with a 1.5h hike followed by a 1h gentle yoga session. The perfect combination of physical and peaceful, a fully restorative day. This event will have 2 options. 

Option 1: Intermediate Swaggin Trail

The hike begins on a beautiful forest trail that has slight elevation gain, and some short steep sections and uneven surfaces. (still great for beginners/lots of breaks) No yoga experience is necessary. Along the trail, there are some hidden coves with a beautiful view of waterfalls. The yoga session will be held at our halfway point near the water.  This gentle yoga session will focus on breathwork and restorative postures. Led by none other than Brandon Jarvis from Groove Campus, a well-known yoga instructor. 

Option 2: Difficult Swaggin Trail

The hike begins on a beautiful forest trail and has major elevation gain, uneven surface, and mountain view top with breathtaking views, all worth the climb. No yoga experience is necessary. The yoga session will be held on the mountaintop.  This gentle yoga session will focus on breathwork and restorative postures. Led by none other than Marie-Pierre Estel, a yoga instructor and Hike Mtl lead/guide.
