Immerse yourself in a Blue Ridge Mountain oasis
Skyterra Wellness has made itself at home in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina, right at the mouth of Pisgah National Forest and alongside the French Broad River. The vibrant little mountain town of Brevard is just a hop, skip, and a jump from our campus, with the lively city of Asheville right up the road.
At Skyterra, we seek to integrate the uniqueness of location, culture, history and traditions into our retreat experience, offering a wide range of accessible experiences: hiking, biking, kayaking, whitewater rafting, waterfall hunting, fishing, and much more. Nearby cities and the surrounding mountains distinguish us from our competitors and will exceed your expectations in both beauty and charm.
The expertise with which our team weaves this wonderland into our wellness program makes this a dream destination for the solo traveler seeking a tranquil getaway, the group of friends ready to embrace new adventures alongside one another, the couple seeking space to work on their heath together without distraction, and everyone in between.
Our campus
Located on 155 acres, our property includes nine miles of walking trails that crisscross streams and lead to the ultimate prize: a waterfall!
The campus blends seamlessly into the natural beauty of the majestic mountains, making it the ideal place to escape to for a healthy vacation.
