Upcoming Retreat - Autumn 2027

Luxury Trail Runners Retreat | Autumn 2027
$0.00

An exclusive three day retreat in Margaret River for up to ten runners who are ready to set the watch aside and simply enjoy being out there. We run the Wadandi Track and the Cape to Cape at a pace that lets you look up, take a breath and actually notice where you are. This retreat is suited to anyone who can comfortably cover at least 10km and is looking for something that feels more like joy than training.

Phones are put away and the weekend opens up. Days move between morning breathwork and yoga, unhurried runs through ancient karri forest and along the coast, time at the beach, remedial massage, long meals around the table, afternoons in the sauna and evenings that end with good wine and live music beneath the stars. Along the way there are gentle workshops on running with ease, listening to your body and the quietly profound effect that time in nature has on the mind. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is measured. Everything is taken care of.

A taste of your weekend:

Day 01

An optional early arrival is available as a courtesy to all guests who wish to arrive a day early and settle in at their own pace, at no extra charge. A welcome hamper and dinner recommendation will be waiting for you in your room.

Day 02
Begin the day with morning mobility exercises and breathwork. Head out for a 7km run on the Wadandi Track, enjoying the serene beauty of the karri forest. Afterward, savor a delightful lunch prepared by your private chef. In the afternoon, participate in a Paint & Sip workshop led by a talented local artist at the Retreat. Take advantage of exclusive sauna access, and end the day with a dinner crafted by your private chef at your accommodation.

Day 03
Start with sunrise breathwork and yoga. Choose between a 10km or 20km guided trek on the Cape to Cape Trail, accompanied by local experts. During the trek, participate in a running workshop focused on technique and sand running. Enjoy a long lunch and a wine tasting at a Margaret River estate. Relax with a remedial massage, sauna access and some free time. Conclude the day with a celebration dinner under the stars, accompanied by live music.

Day 04
A coastal 10km run at sunrise along the coast with views of the Margaret River mouth, once again guided by those who know every turn of this coastline and the stories it holds. Finishing at the beach for a swim and a full breakfast spread on the sand before heading home, restored and rejuvenated.

"Run. For your life, for your joy, for your calm and peace of mind. Run. Because your legs are strong and your lungs are aching for the taste of air. Run. Because what's the point of a life spent walking in the middle?"

What elevates this experience?

Gilgara Estate retreat

01 / Premium lodging.

Private rooms or chalets set within the landscape itself, where comfort meets genuine stillness. Each room is a quiet retreat in its own right, the kind of space that invites you to slow down the moment you walk through the door.

Sauna for your weekend to help you relax

02 / Everything is taken care of, including you.

From the moment you arrive, every transfer, every meal and every detail has already been arranged. More than that, you are looked after, listened to and given space to simply be. There is nothing to plan and nothing to manage. Just you, fully held.

03 / Switch off. Fully.

We don't just encourage you to switch off, we build a weekend where there's nothing to do but be present and enjoy yourself. No agenda to check, no logistics to manage, no reason to look down when everything in front of you is worth looking up for.
