KRIYA YOGA RETREAT

La Selva stands as a realm where nature holds sway. In this pristine locale, offering a mesmerizing panorama of the Positano sea, a social promotion association emerged in March 2002, aptly named La Selva. The association's central hub resides within an age-old rural dwelling, accessible solely by foot via two distinct paths. Nestled amidst the untamed beauty of the Mediterranean scrub, rocky cliffs, and inviting grassy terraces, it provides a serene haven.

Our vegetables and fruit are grown "according to nature" without using any chemical products.

La Selva is only reachable by foot, a 15 minute walk from a pathway sloping down from Montepertuso just above Positano, or 25 minutes walk up from the main road s.s.163, just after the Sponda crossroads on the left if heading towards Amalfi. Just follow the wooden signs pointing to ‘Associazione La Selva’. We also have available a cableway to transport luggage up from the road, located at the Vallone Porto on the s.s.163.
