Vana Retreat

Sowa Rigpa + Ayurveda + TCM · 6-night packages from $4,500

NABH accreditedAYUSH recognised

Vana is a quietly intellectual wellness retreat in the Dehradun foothills. The 21 rooms, the integration of Sowa Rigpa (Tibetan medicine) alongside Ayurveda, and the unusually thoughtful programming make it different from the rest of the Indian luxury wellness category.

    "After two startup exits I was wrecked. Vana put me back together — slowly, intelligently, without ever feeling preachy."

Why we curated this centre

The audit, in one paragraph.

Vana is the choice for the traveller who wants depth without the Kalari Kovilakom-level austerity. The Sowa Rigpa integration brings a distinct character. Pair with Ananda for a Himalayan-cluster two-stop itinerary.
