Sainte Foy | The French Alps
3 - 7th July 2026 (Sold Out)
9 - 13 July 2026 (Sold Out)
We are heading to the mountains! Radiant Waves is taking our retreats to new heights, with an unforgettable Alpine getaway in Sainte Foy, France this July.
Step away from the 9-to-5 and journey to the French Alps for five days of soulful movement, fresh mountain air, and deep restoration. This retreat blends grounding yoga, alpine hikes, and slow, nourishing moments, all set against sweeping summer mountain views.
If this adventure is calling, we would love to welcome you.
After both Alps weeks sold out, one space has just become available for Week 1 in a twin room with a private bathroom. We expect this final space to go quickly, so message us for more information and we’ll send over the details.
See you in the mountains,
Sophie & Josh x

Your days will flow between energising morning practices, guided walks through wildflower-filled alpine trails, long picnic lunches in the sunshine, and relaxed afternoons at the chalet. One day we’ll take a cross-border adventure to an Italian spa, soaking in thermal waters and giving your body and nervous system the space to fully reset.
Enjoy shared meals, sunset conversations, laughter after long hikes, and the feeling of being part of something special. Whether you come solo or with a friend, this is your invitation to slow down, reconnect, and let the mountains move you. More than a retreat. An experience you will carry home with you.

Tucked away in the heart of Sainte Foy in the French Alps, our chalet mountain home offers panoramic views, peaceful trails, and access to some of the region’s most beautiful alpine rivers and lakes.
It’s a place where time slows down - where you can hike out the front door, roll out your mat on the terrace, and end the day watching the sun dip behind snow-capped peaks.
Our premium room offers the best of the chalet. Enjoy breathtaking mountain views, a spacious ensuite with a beautiful bathtub, and your own private terrace overlooking a summer meadow, perfect for soaking up the alpine air. Whether you’re treating yourself to a solo stay or sharing with a partner or friend, Meadow delivers a truly special alpine escape.

Wild Beauty: Towering peaks, alpine meadows, and air so crisp it almost hums - Sainte Foy is mountain magic at its purest.
Fresh Air & Flow: Mornings that start with yoga under blue skies, days spent hiking hidden trails or cooling off in mountain streams - the Alps are where energy meets stillness.
Laid-Back Living: Slow coffee on sunlit balconies, wildflowers at your feet, and evenings that stretch long into golden-hour light. Life here moves with the rhythm of the mountains.
Nature Therapy: Breathe deep. This is the place to recharge - think glacier-fed rivers, pine forests, and wide-open views that make everything else feel small.
Local Flavour: Alpine cheese, fresh-baked bread, and long lunches on wooden terraces - the food here is hearty, honest, and full of soul.
Easy Getaway: Just a short flight to Geneva, followed by a scenic mountain drive - a world away, yet surprisingly easy to reach.
-
Community Energy: Small groups, big connection - where strangers become friends and every shared moment feels easy.
Carefully Curated Schedule: Yoga, hiking, breathwork, cold dips, and fireside evenings - the best bits of mountain living, shaped into one deeply restorative retreat.
Alpine Comforts: A beautiful chalet, with spaces designed to unwind - think panoramic views, warm wood, and soft light.
Nourishing Food: Wholesome, seasonal meals made with fresh alpine produce - hearty, grounding, and cooked with soul.
Authentically Run: Founded by yogis, adventurers, and nature-lovers who actually live this lifestyle. Every detail comes from firsthand experience and genuine passion.
It’s Your Holiday: This is your time to relax, move, and explore - maybe even enjoy a glass of wine on the terrace as the sun sets behind the peaks. Join every session or simply rest, wander, and breathe in the mountain air - this is your reset.
See You in the Mountains
Adventure meets serenity. Movement meets nature.

Not at all, our retreat caters for all levels of yogi's - no prior experience is needed.
-
The nearest airport is Geneva, about 2.5 hours from Sainte Foy by car or transfer. We’ll share recommended flight times and help coordinate group transfers closer to the retreat.
If you prefer to make your own way, car hire or shared taxis are easy to arrange - and the drive through the mountains is beautiful.
-
No problem at all - this retreat is for everyone, not just seasoned hikers. Our guided walks are relaxed and designed to suit all levels, with plenty of breaks to take in the views (and catch your breath!). Think steady climbs, open trails, and time to simply enjoy being in nature, not endurance tests.
We’ll make sure you feel comfortable, supported, and safe - whether it’s your first mountain walk or your fiftieth. Bring a pair of sturdy trainers or walking shoes, and a sense of adventure - the Alps will do the rest.
-
Expect warm sunny days and cool, fresh evenings - perfect for yoga, hiking, and being outdoors. Daytime temperatures usually sit around 20–25°C, but this is the mountains, so the weather can change quickly. A clear blue morning can roll into an afternoon shower before the sun returns.
Pack for variety - light layers for the day, something warm for evenings, and a waterproof jacket just in case. It can get surprisingly chilly once the sun dips behind the peaks, but that’s part of the magic - crisp air, cosy jumpers, and fireside evenings that make it all feel extra special.
-
Absolutely. Most of our guests do! You’re welcome to book a shared room if you’d like to meet new people, or a private room if you prefer your own space.
