Meditation & Yoga Retreats in Canada

237 retreat centers — page 2 of 10

Canada's retreat landscape spans wild boreal forest, mountain valleys, and coastal islands. British Columbia is the densest region: Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands, and the Kootenays host vipassana, yoga, and Buddhist retreats, including the long-running Westcoast Dharma Society network. Hollyhock on Cortes Island is a well-known holistic retreat centre with year-round programming. Quebec's Eastern Townships shelter Tibetan Buddhist centers (Karmê Chöling's northern affiliates), Zen monasteries, and silent retreats in francophone settings. Nova Scotia is the historic North American seat of Shambhala Buddhism (Halifax), with Gampo Abbey near Pleasant Bay offering traditional monastic retreats led by Pema Chödrön's lineage. Ontario hosts vipassana courses in the Goenka tradition and several Buddhist monasteries. The Canadian Rockies (Alberta, BC) host yoga and wilderness retreats. English is the working language nationally; Quebec retreats are often bilingual French/English. Vegetarian food is standard. Best seasons run May–October across most of the country; winter retreats are common at western mountain centers. Most Western passports get visa-free entry; many require an eTA. Cost: $800–$2,500 for a week-long retreat; donation-based monastic stays are much cheaper.
