3-Day Vipassana Retreat | Mount St. Francis | June 25–28, 2026
Escape the noise. Come home to stillness.
Join us at the serene Mount St. Francis Retreat Centre in Cochrane, Alberta — nestled among rolling hills, forest trails, and open skies — for a 3-day immersive Vipassana meditation retreat.
🧘 About the Practice
