Earth Lodge Australia is a 6-day nature-based retreat designed for families seeking connection, creativity, and personal growth. Held each September in the lush Sunshine Coast hinterland, this fully catered camp offers a unique blend of outdoor adventure, hands-on learning, and meaningful rites of passage.
At the heart of Earth Lodge are dedicated lodges for kids, teens, and adults. Children (ages 5–12) dive into a world of nature play, creative crafting, drumming, storytelling circles, and elemental adventures—building confidence, curiosity, cooperation and a deep sense of belonging. Teens engage in physical challenges like archery and raft-building, while being supported through transformative, age-appropriate ceremonies that honour their transition into young adulthood.
Parents are invited into their own journey of renewal, with access to adult teachings, sacred ceremonies, and time to rest, reflect, and reconnect. The entire camp is grounded in respect for the land, community values, and a spirit of inclusion.
More than a retreat, Earth Lodge is an intergenerational village. Families leave the camp feeling nourished, inspired, and reconnected to what truly matters.
As 10-year-old Ruthie shared, “My time at Earth Lodge has been very, very fun; lovely friends, delicious food … and you can just be yourself around other people.”
