Find Your Rhythm in the Himalayas
Welcome to Shivam Neelkant Yoga Homestay in Bhagsu, Dharamshala — where mountain mornings, nourishing meals, and quiet evenings help you remember what matters most.
A Home in the Mountains — Not Just Somewhere to Sleep
Tucked in the peaceful village of Bhagsu Nag, a short walk from McLeod Ganj, Shivam Neelkant Yoga Homestay offers something rare these days — a real chance to slow down.
Guests wake up to clean mountain air instead of traffic noise. They eat simple, home-cooked vegetarian meals prepared with care. They meet travelers from Mumbai, Berlin, Tel Aviv, California — people who came here looking for the same thing: space to breathe, time to reflect, and maybe a little clarity about what comes next.
This space was created for rest, gentle exploration, and reconnection. Whether you’re here for a yoga retreat, writing time, mountain treks, or just need to step away from the noise for a while — you’ll find room for it here.
Why Travelers Keep Coming Back
Explore Dharamshala, McLeod Ganj, and Beyond
This region holds something special. From the Dalai Lama Temple to ancient monasteries and mountain trails — Dharamshala offers a rare blend of culture, quiet devotion, and natural beauty that changes people.
You can hike to Triund and watch sunrise paint the entire Dhauladhar range in pink and gold. Visit Norbulingka Institute and see traditional Tibetan arts being preserved by master craftspeople. Explore Bhagsu Waterfall, where locals have prayed for centuries. Or simply find a café overlooking the valley and let time move slower for once.
Every corner here holds a story. Every trail offers a chance to pause, look around, and breathe deeply enough to remember what you’re capable of feeling.
The Travelers Who Find Their Way Here
Indian travelers seeking peace and a natural break from city life. Families, solo travelers, couples who want something real.
Foreign guests drawn to India’s spiritual roots and Himalayan culture. First-timers and seasoned travelers both find what they need here.
Yoga teachers and spiritual seekers who want to deepen their practice authentically, not in commercialized retreat factories.
Digital nomads and remote workers who figured out that productivity means nothing without peace. Good internet, low cost, mountain views.
Writers, artists, and creative souls who need silence to hear what wants to come through. Space to think clearly.
Welcome to Our Mountain Home
Since 1998, our family has been welcoming travelers to this house in Bhagsu. Over two decades of guests from everywhere — Japan, Israel, Germany, UK, USA, Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai — all coming here for different reasons but leaving with something similar: a little more clarity, a little more peace.
We believe travel isn’t just about collecting passport stamps or posting photos. It’s about creating moments of real stillness and self-discovery. The kind of moments that shift something inside you—quietly, without announcement, but unmistakably.
You’re invited to experience this with us. Not as a guest checking into accommodation, but as someone coming home to a part of themselves they might have forgotten was there.
The mountains will be here. The practice space is ready. The meals are cooking. And there’s room for you whenever you’re ready to arrive.
