Pick your time frame:
1-2 hours: Short and sweet serenity
If you only have a couple of hours, you could take a leisurely stroll and enjoy a dose of fresh, regional air. Reconnect with nature along the Wiradjuri Trail, enjoy a wander around the ponds at Marrambidya Wetland or see pelicans while walking the loop track at Lake Albert.
Fancy a dip? Head to the Oasis Regional Aquatic Centre for a relaxing swim or book in for an aqua aerobics class . Swimming can help alleviate stress and improve flexibility and balance – totally needed after a busy week of work!
Full day: Indulgent escape
A full day will allow you to indulge in the activities listed in our 1-2hour itinerary and add on some extra pampering experiences to unwind. Go on, you deserve it!
Stroll down Fitzmaurice Street and browse our boutique stores such as Ted & Olive Boutique or Texas Jane for one-off styles, handmade jewellery at Sculpted Jewels, or, shop for the lot under one roof at one of our city’s shopping centres such as Sturt Mall and Wagga Wagga Marketplace With sustainable threads, personalised styling services, bespoke wares or grand designs – shopping in Wagga Wagga won’t disappoint.
For a different style of luxury, slip away in blissful indulgence at Tammy's Thai Massage, Wagga Wagga’s first Thai massage shop. Book a signature Thai massage or treat yourself to an anti-stress massage for an all-body experience you won’t forget.
Self-care and good food go hand in hand, so why not book into a cooking class at Food I Am, located on the highest elevated site on the southern edge of Wagga Wagga. Roll up your sleeves and learn from some of the best chefs in the country or sit back and relax while the expert team prepares a culinary delight.
Road trip retreats
Quality relaxation starts with a great night’s sleep in a room with a view, and our surrounds have plenty of ways to make this happen. Book a night of off-the-grid opulence, wake up to sweeping countryside views, or let your troubles soak away in a freestanding lush bathtub. Make memories that last well after you check out.
A mere 15 minutes from Wagga Wagga’s CBD you will find Belisi Wellbeing & Equestrian Centre. Enjoy sunrise yoga, equine therapy, a gentle horse-riding trail, wine by your own fire pit or soak in the bath while taking in views over the Wagga Wagga landscape. 'Belisi' truly is a one-of-a-kind indulgent experience.
Slightly further afield, Avalon Farmstay offers a lovingly restored 1930's farmhouse located just outside the small village of The Rock. Experience a taste of the country lifestyle, enjoy full views of The Rock Hill, explore along the nearby Burke's Creek, relax by the campfire under the stars or cosy up by the wood burning fireplace in the living area.
If you’re looking to disconnect and recharge, then staying a night or two at Hillview Farmstay or Kestrel Nest EcoHut will be right up your alley. Hillview boasts a well-appointed farmstay experience while Kestrel Nest allows you to stay off-grid and off-line but with all the luxuries.
Sustainable travellers will love Robyne's River Retreat, located on the foothills of the majestic Mount Mundongo at the edge of the Goobragandra River. Experience tiny living at its finest, sit by the fire pit by the edge of the river and enjoy a beverage while telling a yarn under the stars with friends. Pure bliss.
