Buddha Statues

Slip away for a quiet moment - or 10 - and enjoy a nourishing dip in the soaking pool. Lounge and bask in breathtaking views and let the water cleanse your being. The hike to the top is worth it.

Soaking Pool

Take a scenic pilgrimage to the mama Juniper perched on the cliff at Green Rocks’s highest point. Write a prayer and offer your intention to the wind.

Prayer Tree

An ancient meditation and prayer tool, the labyrinth can help us connect to the divine within and is a metaphor for life’s path.

Labyrinth

Green Rock is more than a getaway—it’s an alchemy of place and purpose, a sacred space where the boundaries between self and nature dissolve, allowing deep reconnection with a more primitive side of our soul.
