Lands World — retreat center

Lands World

Follow the line, find your own meaning

France Paris paid

Paris serves as both the opening and closing point for Lands World’s journey along the Sacred Line of Saint Michael, a European alignment of sanctuaries associated with protection, courage, and change. Rather than treating the route as a checklist of sights, the experience is framed as a chance to connect with places, their histories, and your own inner life. The group gathers at ibis Styles Paris Gare de l’Est Château Landon, a practical hotel base near one of the city’s main rail stations, before setting out; the hotel also serves as the return point. Daily breakfast is included, while other meals remain flexible, with vegetarian, vegan, and meat-inclusive options listed. The focus is spiritual travel rather than a defined meditation lineage, so expect a curated route-based experience rather than a retreat built around a named sitting practice. Prices start at EUR 2,290.

Setting

The gathering point is in a lively, well-connected part of Paris near Gare de l’Est. It is an urban hotel base rather than a secluded retreat setting, with the city’s rail and metro network close by.

A typical day

The rhythm follows the journey between sites rather than a fixed meditation timetable. The Paris hotel provides breakfast and a place to rest at the beginning and end of the experience, while the timing of travel and visits follows the itinerary. Check the trip plan for exact daily timings.

Accommodation

The journey uses ibis Styles Paris Gare de l’Est Château Landon as its Paris base. The hotel has modern guest rooms, Wi-Fi, towels, and shared lobby and breakfast spaces; daily breakfast is included.

What to bring

Bring comfortable walking shoes and layers for days moving between sites. Paris averages 12.8°C across the year, and rain is more common in July, January, and November, so a light waterproof layer is useful.
