ABOUT THIS RETREAT

​

As inspired by Mother Nature, our intention for this retreat is to create space for you to hibernate and reset.

​

From the moment you arrive, until you leave, we will care for you wholeheartedly. We have carefully curated activities to help reset your nervous system, quiet the busy mind and reconnect with the core essence of who you truly are. There will be plenty of free time throughout the retreat so that you can explore nature, read a good book, or just rest.

This retreat is for anyone who craves the need to rest and rejuvenate. We welcome everyone, from all walks of life and all fitness levels - we will cater for all. We also encourage beginner yogis to join us, as this is a wonderful opportunity to dive deeper into practices that are rarely shared in public classes. All activities are optional so you can do as little, or as much as you like.

LOCATION

Karma Kinglake is a small intimate retreat centre located on the top of the Great Dividing Range and is just approximately 75 minutes from the Melbourne CBD. 

This property is set on 2.5 acres of beautiful bushland nestled amongst nature with sprawling green grass and trees, outdoor fire pit and located within walking distance to the National Park for beautiful nature walks.

The unique accommodation facility consists of 4 stylish self-contained 'Nests' (small hexagonal cottages). Each ‘Nest’ can sleep between 2-4 people with a shared bathroom and offers a self-contained space that has its own living room with a cozy wood fire heater, kitchen, and dining space to relax in. 

All meals are served in the communal dining area and the yoga space is a beautiful elevated room with views of the surrounding bushland, each with its own cozy fireplace.

Kinglake is beautiful all year round but Winter can be an extra special time when snow falls on the mountains and the mist rolls in. You can spend a day literally in the clouds while staying warm and cozy in front of a fire. 

With warmth, style and natural beauty, Karma Kinglake provides the ultimate retreat location.
