Flow With Vickie

Amarant Yarra Valley
4-6 September 2026

Amarant is a Kevin Borland designed architectural treasure perched on Mt Ben Cairn, amidst 25 acres of pristine rainforest. Built to feel like a treehouse, it takes advantage of the panoramic views down the valley while being at one with nature. Located in Yarra Valley a 1.5 hour drive from Melbourne CBD, it’s a perfect venue for a retreat from our hectic lives into the secluded tranquility of nature. 

Please note that Amarant is built into the side of a mountain. This gives great views but also many stairs and some steep slopes, and hence may be unsuitable for those not comfortable with stairs and gradients.

 
Where: Amarant Retreat, 1475 Don Valley Road, Don Valley
When: 4-6 September 2026 (Friday 1pm to Sunday 12pm)
Cost: There’s a range of options, from single, twin share and triple share options, both with shared and ensuite bathrooms, ranging from $800 to $1000 per person, or $1400 per couple.
 
What to expect:
  • all plant-based meals freshly prepared by our retreat chef Isabel Ometto of Brassica Catering
  • yoga, qigong and meditation sessions guided by Vickie and tailored to your needs
  • time of your own to spend as you wish – read a book, explore the region, enjoy walks in nature
  • immerse in a sound bath journey
  • request for a workshop to improve your personal practice
  • come away feeling rejuvenated, nourished and rested.
 
I’d love for you to bring your BFF, partner or spouse, whether they practice yoga/qigong/meditation or not!  
 
A deposit of $400 will be required upon registration, with the balance payable by early August 2026 (30 days before the start of the retreat).  
 My retreats are offered with the hope you will come away feeling nurtured and rejuvenated whilst holidaying in gorgeous surroundings eating delicious chef-prepared meals.  I only host small groups so that you never feel lost in a crowd.

A wonderful experience for my first yoga retreat. And a true reflection of you and what you represent – calm, peacefulness, focus, wisdom, strength and making the most of every day. Thanks for giving us the space to have this experience.”  Nicola
