Retreat & Renewal

The Shambhala Mountain Center is located in the midst of scenic mountains with peaceful and quiet surroundings. It is the perfect spot to unwind and make your retreat unforgettable.

The mountains, forests, and valleys offer 10 miles of wilderness hiking trails, allowing you to immerse yourself in the gift of unspoiled nature. The Shambhala Botanic Gardens are a remarkable horticultural environment at about eight thousand feet above sea level.

Shambhala Mountain Center offers indoor and seasonal outdoor dining with meals three times daily, picturesque views, hiking, a yoga studio, and a workout facility.

If you appreciate sacred architecture, you may want to visit our two special landmarks: The Great Stupa, a stunning example of Buddhist architecture, and the Amaterasu Omi Kami Shrine, which honors the principal awe-inspiring, life-affirming deity in the Shinto tradition.

During the summer months we offer childcare services for ages 3-15 at our Shotoku Children's Center.

We invite you to visit and tour our land and facilities, and to meet our staff. Please contact us at with any questions regarding your needs.
