Rainforest & Waterways Walks

Walk our Natural Waterfalls

Where the land spills over in beauty.

Everleigh is surrounded by some of the most sacred and spectacular natural mini waterfalls. These aren’t manicured tourist stops,  they’re wild, ancient, and alive. Carved by time and fed by rainforest, these falls hold the kind of presence that softens you without trying.

We encourage guests to explore them not just as destinations, but as pilgrimages.

The Creek

This is the artery of Everleigh, clear, creek-fed water that flows from deep within Currumbin Valley, winding past our pasture and gardens. It’s where we plunge after breathwork. It’s where our sheep drink. It’s where you might just hear yourself again.

The creek is:

  • Untreated, unscripted, and alive

  • Home to frogs, dragonflies, native fish, and more

  • The site of our cold plunge rituals during seasonal retreats

It is both sacred and simple. And we treat it as such.

Cougal Cascades (5 min from Everleigh)

A gentle rainforest trail leads to flowing rock pools, natural stone slides, and tiered falls hidden under the canopy. It’s accessible, shaded, and often empty if you arrive early.

Why we love it:

  • Safe for a mid-retreat soak

  • Easy 1.6km return trail

  • Perfect for forest bathing + cold plunge pairing

  • Water quality: clear, fresh, creek-fed

Best for: Post-retreat integration, early morning stillness, full moon reflections

Walking the Forest

Explore our Native Rainforest

  • Native lilly pilly, flame tree, and bracken fern

  • Kookaburras, bush stone-curlews, and the occasional wallaby

  • Soft moss, soft light, and sometimes no sound at all

We encourage barefoot walking. Slow movement. No headphones. Just rhythm.

Guided Tours

All guests and retreat participants are welcome to wander the gardens.
We encourage slow walks, barefoot grounding, harvesting with care, and listening deeply.

This is Everleigh’s edible soul.
Sacred, seasonal, and grown with love.

The values we live by

At Everleigh, everything begins with intention. From the way we plant our herbs to the way we design our spaces, we’re guided by rhythm, respect, and a quiet kind of care. These are the values that shape the land, the stay, and the stillness you’ll feel here.​

Rhythm over
rush

We follow the pulse of the land, sunrises, moon cycles, and seasonal flow. Everything here is designed to slow you down, so you can hear what’s underneath the noise.

Rooted in
place

We grow, make, and source within our valley whenever possible. From biodynamic herbs to hand-crafted timber, every detail is tied to the land we walk on.

Respect for the Seen & Unseen

We honour not just what’s physical, but what’s felt. Stillness, silence, memory, this place speaks, and we listen.

Beauty in Balance

From sacred geometry to slow design, we create with harmony in mind. Not to impress, but to align. Nature knows what balance feels like.

Craft as Community

We work with local makers, growers, and artisans. Every soap, stitch, and spoon of honey carries a story, and a neighbour behind it.

Space to Remember

Everleigh is a place to return to. To presence. To simplicity. To yourself.
