    Event description

    Ready to Unplug and Reconnect?

    Escape the ordinary and discover the joys of a hassle-free camping getaway with nature, community, and relaxation all in one place. Imagine waking up to breathtaking mountain views in the cozy Forester's Hut. Starting your days with a relaxing meditation and slow yoga flows in nature, followed by a delicious buffet-style breakfast whilst connecting with beautiful bunch of girls who all love the same things.

    Explore the beauty of Mt Barney with leisurely bushwalks, cold swims in natural pools, and lunches amidst the bush while learning about local flora and fauna. Afternoons offer time to relax in the sun, engage in creative crafts like ceramics and painting, form deeper connections with your new friends, or simply unwind solo. Come together in the evenings for a family-style dinner followed by cozy moments roasting marshmallows around the sheltered outdoor fire pit. Opt to join evening group journaling, breath work, star gazing or enjoy getting an early night.

    Beyond activities, our retreat is about forming connections with like-minded women. Bond over icebreakers, and our shared experiences that will forge lasting friendships. Curious about our vibe? Join our free Sunday Sheventure Walks to experience our community spirit firsthand.

    Each participant takes home memories and keepsakes, including a journal and a collection of beautiful photos to cherish the weekend for years to come. Whether you seek a break from life, want to turn off your phone for a whole weekend, a chance to reconnect with nature, or simply want to unwind with friends, our weekend away promises an unforgettable experience designed for your enjoyment.
