Drala Hikes

Take your mindfulness practice into the great outdoors of the Pacific Northwest and join fellow hikers in the Shambhala meditation practice of drala. We hike in noble silence while contemplatively attuning and engaging the senses in the phenomenal world around us. Hikes of all levels are offered with family-friendly events available. See below for complete schedule. Drala hikes are open to everyone, but no dogs please.  For questions about this or other things, please contact Liz Howell, Drala Hike Coordinator, at [email protected]
