Join Meesh & Blair for 6 nights / 7 days of practicing taking your spirituality from the mat to the mountains of the Spanish Pyrenees with daily yoga classes and trail time. All fitness levels are welcome!

Nestled in the heart of Catalonia, B&B Can Jan sits in the foothills of the majestic Pyrenees mountains and is the perfect place for a retreat steeped in nature, Spanish culture, and relaxation. 

Located just a two hour drive from Barcelona, the location is ideal for finding tranquility and cultural richness in the rural countryside, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Adjacent to the Garrotxa Volcanic Zone Natural Park, the area also provides easy access to diverse landscapes and volcanic terrain, making it a perfect backdrop for a retreat.

We stay at the charming Can Jan, a family run B&B with 10 freshly renovated bedrooms, where you can enjoy the serene pool, rejuvenate in the soothing sauna, and walk or trail run a network of forest paths amidst tranquil countryside. Can Jan offers a peaceful retreat with stunning views in a blend of comfort and natural beauty.

Just 10 minutes drive down the way is Besalú, a medieval gem that highlights Spain’s historic charm, and diverse regional beauty. The village boasts an ancient stone bridge, cobblestone streets, and views of the surrounding hills, offering a peaceful escape from the modern world. 

The food will be a highlight of your experience. Every meal at Can Jan will be specially prepared for you, featuring a variety of fresh and locally sourced dishes that highlight the flavors of Catalonia.

During this itinerary, we include three excursions that we feel highlight the unique must-dos of the region.

On your first full day, we’ll hike through the stunning Garrotxa Volcanic Zone Natural Park, renowned for its unique volcanic landscapes and lush greenery. In this diverse terrain you’ll be treated to breathtaking views of ancient craters, dense forests, and rolling hills. We'll end your trail run hike local-style with a lunch in a nearby medieval village.

We will also spend a day visiting the cultural and historical city of Girona, where we will include an expertly guided tour of the old city and lunch at a delicious local restaurant. 

Finally, our knowledgeable local guides will take you on a guided visit to the Salvador Dali Museum in nearby Figueres, and finish the afternoon with a Vineyard & Winery tour at La Vinyeta with picnic lunch.  

Of course, there is ample free time to simply sit by the pool, read a book, get a massage, visit another nearby village, or explore endless walking and running trails on the property. You can also book optional adventure excursions like coasteering, mountain biking, via ferrata, or river rafting. 

About the Programming:

Daily yoga classes with Meesh will focus on our breath, alignment, mobility, and mainly listening to our bodies- especially as we increase our physical and mental training load.

Trail running with Blair will flow between easy recovery adventure runs to optional interval and longer runs depending on itinerary for the day and natural energy levels. All runs can easily be substituted with hikes and walks as we take in the surrounding beauty and explore the internal effort that feels right for the day.

The week will be structured to move back and forth between effort and recovery while always taking into consideration how we’re feeling and the natural cycles of energy. All yoga & trail time can be customized per individual with the overall goal to listen within and flow with the trail.

Feel free to bring any questions along as we talk through what a weekly structured training week can look like and how to incorporate mental, emotional, and heart centered practices within effort.

Arrival Date: Sunday, April 19th 2026

If you will arrive at Barcelona Airport (BCN) on the retreat start date, please plan to land by 11AM. We will schedule one included group transfer from the airport to our B&B in Besalú (about a 2 hour drive), and arrive in time for an afternoon meal. Please note that you will likely need to depart from the United States on Saturday evening, as flights heading over to Spain are typically overnight flights.

If you plan to arrive a few days early to spend extra time in Barcelona prior to the retreat start date, we will also make one pickup stop in the city center before heading to the retreat center. Barcelona’s streets are tightly regulated, and so the hired transport can only stop in select areas. You should be prepared to take a short taxi or Uber to a central location on the morning of the retreat start date. We will send specific downtown pickup details about a week beforehand.

Departure Date: Saturday, April 25th 2026

Please do NOT book flights that depart before 11AM the departure date, as we will be traveling about 2 hours from our B&B in Besalú to the airport that morning.

Note: We will plan to make one stop at the airport, and one stop in the city center for anyone staying on and exploring Barcelona after the retreat. Once again, this stop will be made in a central location, and a short taxi ride will likely be necessary to reach your specific hotel or AirBnB.

If you are spending extra time in Barcelona, we recommend booking hotels / AirBnbs in the El Born and Gothic Quarter neighborhoods, as they are great, safe areas and very central to many of the local attractions. If you’d like to view other recommendations of things to do, please visit this helpful guide that we’ve put together: Barcelona City Recommendations.

Once you have booked your flights, please forward your itinerary* to travel@solseedretreats.com. 

*Dates, times, and flight number of arrival and departure must be provided.

Additional balance payments made are refundable up to 120 days prior to the retreat start date. SolSeed must receive an email at info@solseedretreats.com requesting cancellation prior to 12:00AM on this date in order to secure a refund of additional balances paid.

SolSeed Retreats can only make an exception to these terms if:

1. The host government forbids us to visit as tourists.
2. The host government forbids our vendors from hosting us as tourists.
3. The US government forbids us to travel to the host country as tourists.

If SolSeed must further postpone or cancel the trip for any of the above reasons, all registrants will receive a refund of all deposits paid less €200.

The purchase of travel insurance is required for this trip.

Most policies protect you against potential trip delays or cancellations due to airline issues, family emergencies, illness, injury, etc. The travel insurance will also demonstrate to the host country that you are able to pay for any emergency services which may be necessary during your stay.

SolSeed is not authorized to sell travel insurance. Any offer to purchase travel insurance that you encounter during the checkout process are third party offers. You are free to select your own policy provider. If you would like to review options in a convenient online marketplace, we like what www.insuremytrip.com has put together. We have also had great experience with Trawick International and their customer service, and heard very good things from AAA and AMEX Members who have purchased their travel insurance through those respective agencies.

We strongly encourage you to speak with a travel insurance agent to discuss your specific coverage needs, and to clear up any questions you may have relative to travel insurance coverage.
