The yurt is situated on top of a mountain overlooking the beautiful King Valley on a 345-hectare working cattle farm. After driving up a steep dirt track through bushland teeming with kangaroos, wombats, deer etc. you will burst onto a plateau with the most amazing views of the mountains.

We are in an isolated location so you can enjoy these incredible views while sitting in the privacy of your own yurt watching the sunrise while sitting in an outside fire heated bath. The stars are incredible at night.

You have the feeling of being the only person in the world. At dusk enjoy a glass of local wine while enjoying the sounds of silence.

We are only twenty minutes drive from local wineries and there is a river 10 mins away. We now have three yurts all private from each other so If you cant get a booking on the Yurt Alpine Retreat try The Yurt Alpine Retreat II which is very similar, similar location and views with a bath as well.

The Magical Mammoth Fig Tree

Wander down the hill to find a fig tree as big as a house! Once you duck under the branches you'll find 'rooms' of shaded green to lie under. If the season's right you'd be foolish not to grab a few figs and heat them up on the wood fire for breakfast. Drizzle with maple and you've got yourself the most divine of nature's treats.

Explore The Property

Wander 345 beautiful acres, surrounded by lush paddocks, mountain views and cute sheep and cows to say hello to. Across the ridge line from the yurt you'll find a stand of chestnut trees, and in the other direction you can look down over the paddocks where Ned Kelly kept his stolen horses!
