Vale de Moses
Near Oleiros, in the centre of Portugal, Vale de Moses is divided between restored schist houses and tents set up in a wooded valley. People come here for a retreat whose content depends on the teacher hosted: yoga, movement, or creative workshops according to the dates. Take the time to choose the programme as much as the landscape.

Who is it for?
An option for people who want to spend several days in the countryside and enjoy walking. The venue occupies the slopes of a very steep valley. If you have difficulties moving around, ask for details on the routes between your room, meals, and practice room before booking.
Not suitable in these cases: you need to move only on flat terrain; ask for clarification on access conditions adapted to your situation.
The programme
The indicative schedule starts with a calm time, then a group activity in the morning. Depending on the retreat, the late morning remains free or hosts a workshop. A rest period precedes the afternoon programme. Activities and schedules are verified with the organiser: not all weeks offer the same yoga.
Accommodation and meals
The venue offers private double rooms in the main house, individual beds in shared houses, and equipped tents. Three vegetarian meals, often vegan, punctuate the day. The products come from the estate’s gardens, neighbours, and Oleiros traders, depending on the season.
On site and in the surrounding area
Hiking trails and natural river pools are part of the setting. Plan for hiking shoes, a torch for the paths at night, and warm clothing. To arrive without a car, the venue indicates a bus connection between Lisbon and Oleiros, followed by a pick-up to be arranged with the team.

Frequently asked questions
Can we book for a few days rather than a week?
The duration depends on the event. The calendar presents different formats: ask the organiser if a shorter stay is possible for the chosen dates.
Retreatorium’s view
The programme allows for rest periods between sessions. In this sloping valley, time is also spent walking between the different spaces.
