Whether you're an experienced hiker or a beginner, our guided hikes will take you to some of the most breathtaking views the Blue Mountains have to offer.
This is your opportunity to take a break for yourself, inhale the crisp mountain air, and return feeling revitalised. Join us for a weekend of yoga, hiking, and relaxation, and depart feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and prepared to get back to your inner wild.
Welcome to our Hiking and Yoga Escape in the Blue Mountains! As soon as you arrive, you'll be greeted by a group of like-minded women, most of whom will be joining us individually. We'll start off with a warm cup of tea and an afternoon snack, before hitting the local clifftop trail in Kanibla, right from our property. The following days will be a perfect mix of morning yoga sessions, breathtaking hikes to explore waterfalls and hidden gems, delicious and healthy meals, and plenty of time to unwind and relax. You're in for an unforgettable weekend of yoga, hiking, and rejuvenation!
DETAILS
* All prices are per person and listed in Australian Dollars (AUD). All prices shown are GST inclusive where applicable.
Welcome to the Kanimbla View Retreat! After arriving between 1:30-2:00 pm and getting settled into your room, join us for a group welcome and afternoon tea at 2:30 pm. Stretch your legs and take in the breathtaking views with a 40-minute walk on the property's cliff top path. This easy walk will lead you to several lookouts, the perfect way to watch the sunset before returning to the retreat for a soothing vinyasa yoga class at 4:15 pm.
After working up an appetite, enjoy a delicious plant-based dinner, and then unwind by the indoor fireplace. It's the perfect way to end a day filled with yoga, hiking and relaxation.
Get ready for an adventure-packed day with the Grand Canyon Circuit hike! This 6.3km loop hike is rated as a grade 3 and will take you through stunning canyon scenery, narrow chasms, and enclosed rainforest tunnels. Along the way, we'll stop for a hot beverage and snacks, and take in the breathtaking views from above.
After the hike, we'll head back to the retreat for a well-deserved lunch and some chill time. Later in the afternoon, we'll ease into a relaxing yin yoga class to stretch out our legs and release any tension. As the day comes to an end, enjoy a hearty dinner with wine provided. All meals are included in your itinerary, so sit back, relax, and let us take care of the rest.
Wake up and energize your body and mind with a vinyasa flow yoga class at 6:15 am before fueling up with breakfast. Today, we'll be embarking on the Porters Pass & Centennial Glen hike, a 7km journey through the Blue Mountains landscape that will take you past valley views and lookouts. The hike includes a trek along the precarious Walls Ledge, a descent to a hidden canyon and waterfall, and a return trip along the Centennial Pass Trail.
We'll take rest stops along the way, including a hearty morning tea break before making our way back to the cars for a final farewell. With a mix of steps and uneven terrain, this hike is rated as a grade 3 and will take 2-3 hours to complete.
The weekend of fun and adventure comes to a close at around 1:00-1:30 pm.
This trip is graded as "easy" but with some moderate elements. The Grand Canyon Hike on day 2 includes stairs to reach the canyon floor, but don't let that deter you! We take it slow and make sure to take plenty of breaks. On the first day, you can expect to walk for about 40 minutes, on the second day, the hike will be between 3.5-4 hours and on the last day, it will be between 2-3 hours.
A basic to good level of fitness is recommended for this trip. It's not necessary to have prior bushwalking experience, but we do recommend a baseline of walking fitness. The yoga classes are tailored for beginners, so whether you're a first-time yogi or a regular, you'll be able to enjoy the classes. So come and join us for an easy, yet comfortable and amazing adventure!
Absolutely! In fact, most women join us individually. It's a great way to meet like-minded women who enjoy being outside and getting away for a weekend in the mountains.
If you have any doubts about your fitness level, please don't hesitate to reach out to our team via email or phone. The weekend is graded as easy, however the Grand Canyon Track does have a lot of stairs. Overall, good health and determination, combined with good coordination and balance, will all work in your favor. And don't worry, the yoga classes are at a beginner level.
Our trips are open to women over the age of 18. We've had attendees of all ages, with the average age being around 47.
For the hikes, wear a comfortable and reliable pair of hiking boots or shoes, and joggers are also suitable. Around the retreat, wear comfortable clothing! Many women like to wear UGG boots to stay cozy. Don't forget to bring your yoga clothes.
We do offer a single supplement option, but availability is limited. Please check with us prior to booking to see if it's available.
Of course! Just make sure to include your friend's name on your booking form.
We cater for most dietary restrictions, including vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free. Please make sure to let us know if you have an allergy. Unfortunately, we do not cater for FODMAP diets.
No, the roads are sealed and suitable for all car types.
Many women bring a smaller blanket for the yoga class to use during relaxation. Small blankets and hot water bottles for the nights have been great on past trips. If you have them, bring along with you.

Blue Mountains Testimonial
This was my 18th trip with Monique and Women Want Adventure. I love all of them! Thank you Sophie for the incredible meals (maybe my favourite thing). Lots of laughs at night and dancing. I always feel like I am away with a group of friends on a WWA trip. Now I just need to decide what to do next!© Copyright 2024 Women Want Adventure. All rights reserved.
