Winter Solstice Dark Sky Expedition | Joshua Tree, California | Dec 18-23 2026
-With The Adventurous Spirit and Yoga Gab Retreats-
Trade holiday hustle for a weekend you’ll remember forever!
This Winter Solstice, gather your family beneath some of the darkest skies in North America for an unforgettable adventure in Joshua Tree ✨ This isn’t just a retreat-it’s an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and experience the magic of nature together.
Imagine watching the sun sink behind the desert landscape before a blanket of stars fills the sky. Picture your kids discovering constellations, roasting marshmallows around the fire, exploring the desert by day, creating meaningful keepsakes, and making friends with other adventurous families who value experiences over things, and memories over money 🧡
Our Dark Sky Expedition is thoughtfully designed for every generation. Whether you’re traveling with toddlers, teens, grandparents, or somewhere in between, you’ll find activities that inspire curiosity, connection, and wonder.
Throughout the weekend, you’ll enjoy:
*Daily yoga practice with body movement and fascia release
* Guided stargazing under Joshua Tree’s breathtaking night skies
* Winter Solstice celebration and family-friendly ceremonies
* Desert hikes and nature exploration
* Creative workshops and hands-on activities for all ages
* Campfire gatherings, storytelling, and s’mores
* Opportunities to unplug from screens and reconnect with each other
* Plenty of free time to explore, relax, and simply be together
This is more than a retreat. It’s a chance to celebrate the longest night of the year in one of the world’s most awe-inspiring landscapes, surrounded by a community of families who share your love of travel, adventure, and meaningful experiences.
If you’ve been craving a holiday tradition that’s rooted in connection instead of consumption, this is it.
Come chase sunsets, count shooting stars, welcome the return of the light, and create memories your family will talk about for years to come.
✨ Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate and community-centered.
The desert is calling.
The stars are waiting.
