Known as the birthplace of yoga, Ayurveda, and meditation, the Himalayan foothills in Northern India reflect spiritual enlightenment. Ananda in the Himalayas is an award-winning holistic luxury wellness retreat situated in the former Palace Estate of the Maharaja of Tehri-Garhwal, spanning across 100 acres of lush gardens where guests can return to the peaceful solitude of nature.
The 25,000 sq. ft. spa is the soul of Ananda and boasts world-class wellness facilities with an open-air Yoga & Meditation Pavilion, outdoor pool, hydrotherapy rituals, physiotherapy center, and gymnasium. Ananda's philosophy focuses on Ayurveda & holistic wellness, yoga & meditation, emotional healing, spiritual awareness, and healthy cuisine. There are 15 new signature wellness programs, which are further customized to each guest's requirements, along with more than 80 Ayurvedic and International therapies to cleanse the body, mind and soul.
Ananda's acclaimed wellness cuisine is a holistic experience that embraces Ayurvedic principles with an emphasis on fresh, natural foods tailor-made for the individual ‘dosha’ or ‘body type’ to promote internal balance. Guests can further achieve balance and refresh their spirit via discovery of the exotic local landscape, including treks to historic temples, river rafting on the Ganges or a safari expedition. Other activities include daily discourses in Vedanta, which contributes to a wellbeing experience that is not only holistic but equally spiritual. Transcend to a true haven of tranquility and enlightenment within the most majestic of settings at Ananda in the Himalayas.
