Details

Set on the lush grounds of Zorvino Vineyards in Sandown, New Hampshire, Goats To Go offers an unusual outdoor experience that blends mindful movement with playful animal interaction and the region’s flourishing wine culture. This isn’t your typical yoga session: as you move through gentle stretches and basic poses, curious goats roam freely, offering spontaneous nudges, snuggles, and lighthearted company. It’s a low-key workout where laughter and light goat bleats echo across vineyard rows, all framed by the rural charm of southeastern New Hampshire’s rolling landscape.

Zorvino Vineyards itself is a prime spot known for its terroir-driven wines and engaging atmosphere, providing a scenic backdrop of grapevines, rustic barns, and open sky. The property lies within an area where granite and glacial boulders punctuate the terrain, reflecting New England’s rugged geological heritage. The vineyards invite visitors to connect directly with the land — an ideal venue for blending outdoor yoga and farm animal interaction.

Goats To Go elevates this connection with a session that appeals to all skill levels, making it accessible for those seeking wellness infused with a sense of fun. After stretching and balancing alongside the friendly goats, participants sip local wines produced right on site, deepening the sensory experience in a relaxed, social setting.

This fusion of wellness, whimsy, and regional flavor is especially unique for Sandown: while New Hampshire offers abundant wilderness hikes and more traditional outdoor adventures, few provide this kind of hands-on, animal-assisted wellness. Goats To Go sets a distinct tone by pivoting away from high-adrenaline or strenuous activity, focusing instead on presence, joy, and approachable community. It’s an asset to the outdoor scene, drawing visitors who want something spirited and less conventional. Whether you’re local or passing through, booking a goat yoga session here promises a memorable, palate-pleasing pause from everyday routines.
