Join us for a transformative Shasta Retreat on July 16–19, 2026 in Mt. Shasta, California, USA.

You are warmly invited to join our Sacred Shasta Retreat this summer

Join us for an intimate and deeply transformative Shasta retreat set on the sacred lands of Mount Shasta — one of the most spiritually revered mountains in the world. Known for its powerful energy, pristine nature, and ancient presence, this is a destination travelers are drawn to in order to reconnect, realign, and awaken.

Over four days and three nights, you will be immersed in a carefully curated experience designed to support healing on every level — physical, emotional, and energetic. This retreat brings together guided mountain journeys, quantum energy work, constellation sessions, and intentional moments of stillness, all held within a safe and nurturing space.

We have the rare opportunity of staying on the mountain itself, in a cozy and peaceful home surrounded by nature — allowing you to fully absorb the energy of the land without distractions. Each day of this Shasta retreat will include grounding practices, guided explorations of the sacred landscape, and opportunities to connect more deeply with yourself and others in the group.

This is more than just a retreat — it is an invitation to pause, release old patterns, and step into a renewed sense of clarity and alignment. Whether you are seeking healing, expansion, or simply time away to reconnect with your inner self, this experience is designed to meet you wherever you’re at on your life journey.

With nourishing meals prepared onsite and a thoughtfully guided flow throughout the retreat, every detail is created to support your journey.

Spaces are intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate and personal.

If you feel called to this sacred mountain, trust that feeling — this Shasta retreat may be the experience you’ve been waiting for.

Meet Your Guides

Dan Horton
Mountain Guide

Dan is a spiritual adventure guide, retreat facilitator, author, and empowerment coach with over twenty-five years of experience in the transformational field. He has led immersive journeys through some of the world’s most awe-inspiring landscapes including Yosemite, Big Sur, Joshua Tree, Capitol Reef, Canyonlands, Chaco Canyon, the Dolomites in Italy, and most devotionally, Mount Shasta.
 
In 2019, Dan answered a profound inner call to Mount Shasta, where he now guides curious visitors into the mystical presence of the mountain and its surrounding sacred lands. For Dan, the mountains are more than terrain – they are teachers. His work as a retreat co-host weaves together nature immersion, spiritual inquiry, grounded empowerment coaching, and deep listening to create experiences that are both expansive and integrative.
 
Drawing from decades of study across multiple spiritual traditions including Toltec teachings, indigenous wisdom pathways, hypnosis and consciousness work, and philosophical mystic traditions, Dan supports participants in reconnecting with their authentic selves, releasing limiting beliefs, and stepping into greater sovereignty and self-trust. His approach balances the mystical with the practical: helping individuals not only access profound insight, but embody it in their daily lives through aligned action and self-leadership.
 
Whether guiding a mountain ascent, facilitating transformational journey work, or supporting personal breakthroughs, his intention is to help each person awaken their inner wisdom and walk their path with clarity, courage, and reverence for the Earth.
 
Dan sees every retreat as a shared Hero’s Journey – one rooted in reciprocity with nature, spiritual remembrance, and living in harmony with the highest good of all beings.
