Detailed itinerary

The Dryandra Woodlands is a biodiversity hotspot containing more than 850 species of plants, more than 100 species of birds and 24 mammals, including the endangered numbat and bilby. The woodlands provide refuge for some of our unique Australian animals including echidnas, brush tailed wallabies, woylies, quendas and chuditch.

Upon arrival at the woodlands, you will have time for a short bush walk, looking for native animals and stunning wildflowers in season before sitting down for a picnic dinner in the forest. Your guide will cook some food on the barbeque, there will be fresh salads, cheese and biscuits, wine and hot drinks available.

After dinner, enjoy a scenic drive through the forest as the sunlight filters through the branches of the trees, casting long shadows and a flickering light creating a magical effect on the forest floor. Keep an eye out for the many kangaroos in the area as they dodge and weave their way through the trees.

Barna Mia is a unique wildlife sanctuary for some of our endangered mammals. The guides will provide a short talk and video explaining the conservation work done at Barna Mia. Then you head in to the sanctuary for a guided night walk where we sit and wait for the night creatures of Barna Mia to appear. Before long, you will be entertained by the animals of Barna Mia as they emerge from the darkness in their search for food.

To complete the tour, you will experience a Sound Healing session under the Milky Way with our 34 inch gong. Above you, the sky is a brilliant tapestry of stars, countless pinpricks of light stretching across the vast, dark canvas. The rhythm of the gong feels in sync with the slow pulse of the earth beneath you and the timeless dance of the stars above. Each gong strike feels like a gentle invitation to sink deeper into the quiet mystery of the universe. The experience is almost spiritual, there’s a sense of solitude, but not loneliness. A peaceful connection to something much larger than yourself, as if the stars themselves are part of the symphony of sound that surrounds you.
