What is Drala Mountain Center?

Drala Mountain Center is not just a retreat center—it is a sacred meeting place. Set high in the Rocky Mountains, DMC is a sanctuary for deep spiritual practice, transformation, and peace. Here, stillness reveals clarity, nature reflects our own brilliance, and ancient wisdom takes root in a modern world.

Through meditation, community, and land stewardship, Drala Mountain Center serves to impact the world – one awakened heart at a time.
