Yeti Gathering

Yeti Gathering is a long-running tradition that began nearly 25 years ago. Beginning as a race season-ending party first held at Snowmass, CO, the Yeti Gatherings have become one of the most special traditions of Yeti Cycles, and a way to honor our Roots and Yeti Freaks.  

For this Regional Gathering we’ve mixed up the long established ‘Colorado Gathering’ format in order to give Yeti fans in the North East a more intimate and unique experience. This multi-day adventure will be smaller scale, and more ‘on the grid’ than the Colorado Gatherings. Mark your calendars and join us for some top tier New England singletrack. Think verdant hills, fresh dirt, and some of the finest beer in the country! 

We’ve taken over a beautiful lodge, bar and restaurant in the East Burke countryside, with the iconic Kingdom Trails running in and out of the grounds. We’ve got some killer rides planned, so you’re gonna want to be there.

All lodging and food is included so all you have to do is round up your Yeti buddies, book your place and turn up ready for an unforgettable weekend.

Introduction to Yoga for Equestrians
10:00 AM - 11:15 AM

  In this workshop, Michelle, will introduce you to the beauty in the unification of yogic practices and connecting with horses.

We will explore the ways that the practice of yoga can deepen our connection with our horse friends and the world around us, via breathwork, grounding practices, and physical yoga practice, to develop strength, flexibility and awareness.

This workshop is for all. No prior yoga experience, or even horse experience, is necessary.

This will be a preview of what will be shared in future classes to come, and a chance to begin taking your relationship with horses and yourself to a deeper level.

Festival parking - Please be aware that traffic and parking in the village will be very busy on festival day. Plan accordingly! Carpool if possible. Festival parking will mainly be at the East Burke Storage shed lot on Route 114 (a three minute walk to the festival). When that is full, you may need to park just down the road at Darling Recreational Park on Route 114 (across from the cemetery just past the Mountain Rd/114 intersection. A 5-10 minute walk to the green).

Please drive carefully and slowly through the village and do not park in private business lots or areas marked, 'No Parking.'

Route 114 from the East Burke Fire Station to Darling Park will be closed for the parade from 9:45-10:45am.
