About Us
Programs
Wollangarra operates a three stage program. While each stage is completely independent of the others, Stage I is the initial contact for young people. From here, Stages II and III are accessible, however an individual school is not required to commit to the whole program. Attending only Stage I is fine.
Previous hiking experience is not required. A degree of fitness will help, but our Stage I program is designed as an introduction to the mountains, not as a once-in-a-lifetime challenge. We provide all the necessary gear, including backpacks, sleeping bags, tents, rain jackets and even boots!
Community Events
Wollangarra exists because of our wonderful extended community. It stretches all over Gippsland, Victoria, Australia, and even internationally. Throughout the year, Wollangarra runs a number of work parties and events where young people, locals, ex-staff, and all our community members are invited to camp out under the stars, feel fulfilled after a hard days work, eat yummy food, sing plenty of songs, swim in the river, deepen our connection to the countryside, and get to know each other better.
If you’d like to come up to help us out, or just to check the place out, see the events list below.
All events are advertised through our Facebook page, but you can also call us on the homestead to book your spot. Can’t wait to see you there!
Volunteer
Throughout the year, Wollangarra welcomes volunteers who can help out on the flat and with programs. Our vollies are an integral part of keeping young people happy, getting meals cooked, keeping hikers hiking, and keeping Wollangarra running!
