Experience pristine nature, monastic silence, and dark skies filled with stars. Choose from curated retreat formats or create your own path.
Not sure which format fits? Tell me what you're looking for and I'll help you find it, or we'll build a custom retreat together.

Zazenkai weekends, sangha work weeks, and practice intensives throughout the year. Come for a weekend, or settle in for longer stay.

Experience the way teachings and practice evolve in your daily routine at Crestone Mountain Zen Center. Commit to a year and dive deep into monastic practice.

Settle into the daily schedule, practice zazen, and share the work in the kitchen, garden and grounds. Our volunteer program runs from mid-May to late September.
