Suggested Itinerary:

Day 1

Your Couples Retreat starts with a warm welcome at the peaceful and rural Lewis Park Chalets and complimentary bottle Redgum Wine Estate wine on arrival. Your chalet has a modern well appointed kitchen, a beautifully furnished living space, a spacious bedroom, modern ensuite bathroom and a private covered verandah for guests to sit back and forget about life's hectic pace, unwind and take in the serenity of the surroundings and sweeping views of the countryside. 

Alternative Accommodation Option:  If you’re craving the quintessential country winter escape in a log cabin, chose to a picturesque forest chalet at Noble River Estate. You’ll find your chalet set on 34-acres of peaceful bush land amongst the tall timbers of the majestic jarrah forest. Unpack, unwind while enjoying the serenity and fresh air on the veranda overlooking the nearby dam with resident kangaroos grazing on the lush grass.

Day 2

After a good night's sleep and lazily awakening to the sounds of the birds and the gentle sounds of nature, stretch the body out and get ready to explore the secrets of Dwellingup. Enjoy a hearty breakfast at the iconic Blue Wren Café, located in the heart of the town, before you meet Dwellingup Adventures at the Chuditch day use area in Lane Poole Reserve, only 10 minutes from your tour, where your mountain bike will be waiting for you. From here beginners can weave through the picturesque jarrah forest on the simple but fun, cross-country Quollity Street trail. If you have intermediate skills, head to The Roost and take on a blue trail. Later-Rite is a rocky, all-mountain ascent, which connects to local favourite Inzamia for a long, leg-burning descending pump trail that will have you grinning from start to finish. Dwellingup really is a mountain bikers paradise. 

After an absolutely epic day, head into town, relax and let someone else do the cooking. With so much energy burned it’s hard to go past a stone-baked pizza or juicy burger, paired with an ice-cold pint from Longriders Café & Restaurant or the local ‘Dwelly Pub’. 

After dinner the next stage of your adventure begins, when the sun goes down, there are wonders out there to discover. Salt and Bush Eco Tours aims to inspire people to connect, and better understand the natural world. Join naturalist guides as you learn about the night sky, or go for a guided spotlighting walk to discover our unique nocturnal animals.

Day 3

In the early morning, fog hangs in the valley making for one of the most spectacular sunrises you will ever see. Take the time to appreciate the magic of stillness and calm as the golden light trickles through the towering forest trees. If you've upgraded to the half day bushwalk option then today is your day. 

Take a Bushwalk with your own personal naturalist guide, into the amazing Northern Jarrah forest and experience the beauty of a nature walk while you learn about the plants, animals, rocks and fungi that surrounds you. Stepping into nature for a hike can be a wonderful experience. A guided bushwalk tour is different from ‘Hiking’. We want to immerse you into the natural world to see it’s wonder and awe. When you explore with the mindset to learn about your environment, you come away seeing the natural world so differently from when you started. Learning the secrets of nature reveals wonderful phenomena that you could easily walk right past.

Hidden amidst the lush, colourful trees and edible gardens of Lost Eden Creative is Garden Eats. Here, you’ll find a quaint café serving plant-based and gluten-free food from a rustic food van that was a horse float in another life. The menu is ever changing, produce is sourced locally and is fresh, healthy and delicious. Authentic soul food.

If time permits, take a visit to the Caraholly Orchard, one of the many cellar doors and stock up on fresh fruit and veggies at Vergone’s Fruit Stall (a Dwellingup institution). The stall stocks a wide range of fresh fruit and vegetables alongside delicious homemade treats, soups and jams, and Pinjarra Bakery pies. Taking in the last of the scenery, you can feel your soul re-energising and your mind becoming clear, before it is time to take the leisurely drive back through the winding, country roads – towards home.
