Slow travel the Netherlands

November 29, 2024

Slow travel is the art of traveling mindfully and at a relaxed pace, and you don't have to go far from home to embrace it. The Netherlands offers countless opportunities to enjoy serene landscapes, charming villages, and unique accommodations. From walking through vast natural reserves to indulging in a luxurious wellness retreat on a picturesque estate, slow travel in the Netherlands is all about escaping the hustle and taking the time to recharge. Discover how close to home you can enjoy a journey filled with mindfulness, yoga, spa and nature - without traveling far. Slow travel embraces the philosophy of slowing down. That’s exactly what you experience on a PureandCure Yoga & Wellness Retreat. These weekend getaways are experienced like a mini-holiday. Always set in beautiful destinations and always hosted at hotels with extensive spa and wellness facilities. These retreats are designed to break away from the cycle of rushing and working, allowing you to truly savor the time and place you're in.
