🍃 Yarragin Private Retreat — Your Gateway to Nature, Culture & the Universe 🌄

Wake at dawn and walk across ancient earth. Your guide — an Elder of the land — leads you past trees and rock formations with stories told through generations. Learn how rivers carved the land and how song-lines trace across Country.

From a high lookout, sweeping plains, distant hills and woodland unfold before you. Hear stories tied to this place, names in language, and ancestral pathways. You are invited to listen — to wind, birds, and Country itself.

Walk deeper into gullies and across creek beds. Learn how waterholes sustained life for generations and feature in Dreaming stories. Sit in silence, feel the breath of the land. When you return, you carry a renewed relationship with Country — changed, connected, and welcomed.

Bring your own bus and driver or we can arrange one for you!
