Prince Edward County is full of quiet corners, open skies, and peaceful spots that make it ideal for anyone looking to slow down and reset. Whether you're rolling out your yoga mat at sunrise or closing your eyes for a few moments of stillness by the water, PEC has a way of making every breath feel a little deeper.
From lakeside beaches to forest trails and quiet conservation areas, there’s no shortage of scenic places to move, stretch, and reflect. And if you’re more of a guided-practice kind of person, there are several businesses in the County offering outdoor yoga sessions during the warmer months—so you can experience local wellness and community while surrounded by nature.
One of the County’s most iconic natural spots, Sandbanks is a dream location for yoga or meditation. The long beaches and wide-open water views make for an incredible sunrise session. The soft sand, steady sound of the waves, and early morning light create a grounded and peaceful setting that’s hard to beat.
This elevated, mystical lake is perched high above the Bay of Quinte and offers incredible views and a quiet, almost otherworldly energy. It’s great for solo meditation, gentle stretching, or journaling in nature. It’s a go-to spot when you want to be surrounded by beauty without the busyness.
For forest lovers, this conservation area in Picton offers shaded trails, open fields, and spots where you can truly feel surrounded by nature. Bring your mat and explore a slower, more intentional movement practice under the trees. Birdsong included.
A lesser-known waterfront spot, this quiet beach in the village of Wellington is great for reflection and water-side yoga. It’s small, peaceful, and perfect for unwinding in the late afternoon with a bit of movement or breathwork.
Not as busy as Sandbanks but equally beautiful, North Beach offers shoreline views and room to stretch out. You’ll hear the gentle waves and feel the breeze from Lake Ontario as you move through your practice. Come early or midweek for the most peaceful setting.
If you prefer a guided session, there are several local yoga businesses in PEC that offer seasonal outdoor classes in scenic settings:
The Movement Yoga Studio (Wellington): Hosts classes on beaches, at vineyards, and in nature throughout the summer. Their instructors weave mindfulness into every session.
Santosha Yoga (Bloomfield): Known for small, community-focused classes with occasional pop-ups in parks and gardens.
Oeno Gallery / Huff Estates: Sometimes partners with instructors for yoga + art or yoga + wine mornings—check local listings for updates.
Many of these classes are drop-in or pre-register online, so it's easy to fit a session into your weekend or wellness retreat.
After a refreshing session outdoors, there’s no better place to come home to than The Lilac Lakehouse. The wide deck overlooking the water makes for a perfect yoga spot at sunrise or sunset. You can stretch with a view, breathe deeply in total privacy, and feel fully connected to your surroundings.
Inside, the peaceful, open layout makes it easy to keep that calm energy going. Brew some tea, take a bath, or journal on the dock while the waves roll in. Whether you're traveling solo, with friends, or as part of a mini retreat, the lakehouse is a calm, comfortable space to unwind and restore.
Whether you’re chasing a still moment by the water or moving through sun salutations under the trees, Prince Edward County is full of places that invite you to slow down. Take a break from the noise, breathe a little deeper, and reconnect with yourself—surrounded by the natural beauty PEC is known for.
With peaceful spots to explore and a lakehouse designed for relaxation, your perfect PEC wellness getaway is closer than you think.
