The Last Resort

The Last Resort is located in the moun­tains of southern Utah about forty miles southwest of Bryce Canyon at an eleva­tion of 8,700 feet. The purifying and ma­jestic environment enhances spiritual practice and inner work. Part of what makes the Last Resort so special is that we limit retreat participation to eight to ten people. We celebrate the New Year with a five - or ten-day Vipassana retreat in total silence. We also utilize Iyengar

traditions and levels of experience are welcome.
