Organising a workshop or retreat in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté
Bourgogne-Franche-Comté means vineyards, the deep forests of the Morvan and the Jura plateaus. Many group gîtes, practice rooms and group accommodation centres are in period homes, manor houses or small châteaux, with big, light rooms and grounds.
Dijon is about an hour and a half from Paris by TGV, and Besançon and Mâcon have good connections too. The Morvan, in the middle of the region, is a regional nature park where it's almost completely quiet. For a silent retreat or a meditation workshop, it's a safe bet.
Groups come here for yoga, meditation, qi gong, tai chi or writing retreats when they want to switch off without going too far from Paris or Lyon. Spring and autumn are lovely. Winter is cold, but a well-equipped venue is still a welcoming place to be.
Good to know
- The Morvan is also worth considering for a retreat in the forest.
- In the Jura, the altitude keeps summers pleasant and brings snow in winter.
- Old houses have beautiful rooms; out of season, check they're properly heated.
