Nourish Yoga & Hiking Retreats in Fornalutx, Mallorca

Nourish Yoga & Hiking Retreats is a five-day yoga retreat in Fornalutx, Mallorca, set in the Tramuntana mountains. It combines daily yoga and meditation with guided afternoon hikes, seasonal local food and a small, personal rhythm. It is open to beginners and advanced practitioners alike, and is hosted by Lisa Axelsson and Jonas Axelsson, who have run 14 retreats so far.

What to Expect

Each day follows the same unhurried shape. The morning starts with yoga and meditation facing a panoramic mountain view. A seasonal local brunch follows, then an afternoon hike in the Tramuntana range led by Jonas. As the day winds down, there is a calming evening yoga practice, and dinner is cooked by the in-house chef.

The five days are meant to nurture body, mind and soul, and the program is planned with that in mind. A past guest, Carmen, described the care in the details: the welcome note, the food, the hikes and the way the daily program is put together. Three retreat dates are announced for 2027, in January, March and April.

About Lisa Axelsson

Lisa Axelsson, full name Lisa-Annabel Axelsson, is a yoga and breathwork teacher based in Fornalutx. She teaches group classes, private and corporate sessions, and hosts yoga and hiking retreats in the Tramuntana mountains. Her work rests on one idea: that yoga gives you the space to come back to yourself, so the rest of life feels manageable again.

Yoga has been part of her life from the start. Her mother was a yoga teacher and taught a class on the day Lisa was born. She came back to it years later, drawn first by the physical side: flexibility, core strength and acrobatic poses. After more than two years of practising purely as exercise, she noticed the practice changing her. It began to show her what was holding her back, physically and mentally, and it left her mind clear and calm. She has been a full-time yoga teacher since 2014.

About Jonas Axelsson

Jonas Axelsson co-hosts the retreat and leads the afternoon hikes through the Tramuntana range, so the walking is guided by someone who knows the mountains around Fornalutx.

The Setting

The retreat takes place in Fornalutx, a town in the Tramuntana mountains of Mallorca, in Spain's Balearic Islands. Morning practice looks out over a wide mountain panorama, and the hikes begin from this landscape. Meals are organic and vegetarian throughout the stay: a seasonal local brunch and an evening dinner prepared by the in-house chef.

Before You Go

No previous experience is required, and experienced practitioners are equally welcome. The price of the stay includes daily morning yoga and meditation, the afternoon guided hike with Jonas, the evening yoga practice, the seasonal local brunch and the chef's dinner. Since afternoons are spent walking in the mountains, bring footwear and clothing suited to hiking.
