FAQ
Accessibility
Kripalu Retreat Center has been mindfully set in nature – the grounds and roads are a mixture of dirt, gravel, and pavement. The general guest areas are spread out over many acres, so getting to and from various points will require walking moderate distances and traversing stairs and hills. If mobility is a concern, please contact the retreat center before registering with CSLI/Kripalu.
Age Minimum
Please note that all guests must be 18 or older, whether participating in CSLI's retreat or not.
