The environment of Rishikesh brings you close to Mother Nature.
Rishikesh is the birthplace of great Saints and Yogis, which is why Yoga is more like a legacy here. Yoga is not new or modern in Rishikesh. It still speaks the holistic tone of years-old practice by great Sages and Saints. The Spiritual rhythm of the place, the mantras, the temple bells, the river side ashrams and the monks and sages add a lot to your Yogic experience here. Several places and locations are here where you can go on excursions and heal with nature. Rishikesh's culture becomes a perfect support to the Yoga retreats here — this is why Om Setu's Yoga Retreat is the best retreat for your little break.

Rishikesh weather by season, so you can pick the right dates
This is the best time to join a Yoga Retreat in Rishikesh. The temperature ranges from 15–28°C, the sky is clear, and even the Ganga River is in safe condition. You can practice Yoga under the open sky and also enjoy adventurous activities during this season. Book your seat at least 4–6 weeks before, as this is the peak season.
This season is quite cold in Rishikesh, with temperatures ranging from 5–18°C. You'll see fewer crowds — a perfect time for those looking for intense Yoga practice, since summer heat and sweat won't bother you. You can also enjoy outdoor Yoga at any time of the day.
This is the Summer and Monsoon time in Rishikesh. Summers are very hot, with the temperature spiking up to 35°C, so outdoor activities are limited. It can be a little bothersome for those who cannot withstand the heat — but if you want to do indoor Yoga practices, you can still join our Retreat at this time.
So September to April becomes the best time to practice yoga in Rishikesh. If you cannot visit at this time, then don't worry — our Yoga Retreats are open throughout the year. You can join any time, and we'll ensure you have the best experience in every month of the year.
Know why travellers from globally choose us again and again
We do not offer just one Yoga session — we let our guests experience the holistic practices at least 3 session per day. Morning Yoga and Pranayama is usually Hatha flow during sunrise, and calming Meditation in the evening.
We do not believe in increasing the batch size as much as possible. Every individual needs personalised attention and support during the retreat, so we keep our batch size very small and sometime Personalized as well — with real one-on-one posture correction and daily support.
Our aim is to spread Yoga among as many people as possible to ensure a Healthy and Holistic world. Our Yoga Retreats are beginner-friendly, and a person with zero experience in Yoga can also be a part of it.

We've just returned from a phenomenal 10 day retreat with Om Setu in Tapovan, Rishikesh. When we initially booked our trip some months ago we were overwhelmed by there being so many yoga companies in Rishikesh to choose from. We didn't know for sure what we would experience when deciding upon Om Setu. Any uncertainties soon dispersed upon arrival & meeting our host. Over the course of our 10 day trip, They were the perfect hosts and took very good care of our needs immersing us into cultural and local excursions and ceremonies & experiences. Teachers are friendly, insightful & talented meditation & pranayama teacher and kind & thoughtful host. As a result, our trip was an unforgettable experience. We have so many beautiful memories which we will hold dear in our hearts & will be returning. If you are considering an immersive experience of Rishikesh with a caring company then look no further than Om Setu, I highly recommend & rest assured you will be in good hands. 🙏🧡🇮🇳🧘♂️

Situated in the foothills of the Himalayas on the bendy bank of the river Ganges is the Om Setu Yogashala 🧘🏻♀️🧡 You’d think, that because of the stunning mountain back drop and mesmerising green flow of the sacred river just a stones throw from your room, that it’s all about the location. But its not just that - the amazing programme put together for my best friend and me was delivered by the loveliest human beings I’ve ever met, and it’s people that make your memories and experiences so special. All are funny, kind and welcoming and love to share their knowledge with you. If you go, (and you really should!!), say hello to my far away friends for me. 🥰But not to worry if you forget - I will return!✨ …Oh and just a heads up; it’s really quite windy in the mornings on the Ganges, so take a hoodie!!

I cannot speak highly enough of Om Setu Yogashala. We were so well looked after by Host and his team. The quality and professionalism of the teachers was outstanding. Arti is a fantastic yoga teacher and Ayurvedic practitioner. Bhuppi is an exceptional Pranayama and Meditation teacher who generously shares his knowledge and wisdom. All this on the banks of the river Ganges. Perfect location. Host has organised a wonderful schedule which includes many excursions and everyone is so giving of their time. Felt very well looked after. Really going to miss all people. It was quite sad to say goodbye.
Australia
We visited for a 5 day yoga retreat. We had an amazing experience both on the retreat doing yoga and meditation but also doing the other activities on the schedule which they generously gave their time to. It trully was a wonderful experience and we will return to beautiful Rishikesh and Om Setu Yogashala retreat. Namaste 🙏

You will have an amazing experience if you chose this retreat in Rishikesh. Host is one of the most genuine kind and caring people I have ever had the pleasure to meet. He ensures that every day of your yoga retreat experience is wonderful, nothing is too much trouble, he is flexible and will adjust the timetable in any way you wish to ensure that every experience you hope for is achieved. He took such good care of us that by the time we left we felt a bond like we were family. Bhupi Ji is a remarkable teacher of meditation, pranayama and yoga / Hindu philosophy and a wonderful human being, we learned so much from him and he took equally good care of us along with our incredible excursions. The location of the accommodation is outstanding - you open your room door directly onto a terrace which is on the beach of the beautiful Ganga. Located at the edge of Tapovan this is a tranquil and beautiful spot. I cannot recommend this experience more highly.
