Galena Lodge Yurt, Idaho
View Original Description
Feeling adventurous? Yurts are rustic, yet a modern adaptation of ancient shelters used by Central Asian nomads for many centuries. Think of a yurt as an elevated Mongolian teepee.
Our yurts are strong, warm (when there is a fire going), and weather tight. Their efficient design provides a secure and comfortable dwelling in a natural setting with easy access to all the activities you will enjoy during your stay at Galena. The yurts are unique places to escape and reconnect with your family and friends. No electricity. No laptops. No cell phones.
Three of our yurts are located on the ridge above the lodge and are accessible by a short ski or snowshoe (or hike or drive in the summer). The Miner’s yurt is located at the top of Senate Meadows on the Jenny’s Way ski trail. Absolutely no walking without snowshoes in the winter! There is now a wood fired sauna right next to the Star’s Perch Yurt. This sauna is open to all yurt users regardless of which yurt you are staying in. The sauna takes about 45 minutes to heat up and is a great way to unwind after a day of play. You may want a bathing suit and don’t forget to bring a towel! All yurts are outfitted with solar lighting to enhance your yurt experience.
