Inner Peace Forest Retreat
The Inner Peace Forest Retreat acts as a centre for innovation for sustainability, hosting Janela Aberta's economic, environmental and socio-cultural innovative actions in line with the UN 2005-2014 Decade of Education for Sustainable Development. The 5 hectare retreat is blending modern technology with traditional agri/silvi-culture to offer a series of personal development actvities alongside environmental conservation programmes, making the best of the retreat's remote forest location. You can find a demonstration forest farm (Quinta Florestal) with organic agriculture, solar power and a spring water micro-catchment system, a retreat house and campsite, and dedicated yoga, martial arts and mediation spaces, surrounded by forest walking trails and near-by beaches.
