Family Retreat

​


Reconnect, explore, and create unforgettable memories with your loved ones at Wollemi Ridge Retreats. Our Family Retreats are children friendly, designed to provide a perfect balance of adventure, creativity, and relaxation in the heart of nature. Over the course of two nights, families will enjoy engaging activities, hands-on experiences, and moments of quiet connection, all within our stunning wilderness setting.

​

A Nature-Inspired Escape

​

Immerse your family in the beauty of the Australian bush with our carefully curated retreat itinerary. From guided farm tours and scavenger hunts to glowworm adventures and creative workshops, every moment is designed to foster learning, fun, and quality time together.

This programme is designed with children engagement and  parent respite in mind. Children under 8 must be accompanied by at least one parent at all times. Children over 8 are able to attend daily craft workshops unaccompanied, allowing parents to rest and rejuvenate in the peaceful wilderness whilst their children stay entertained.
