A place of deep restoration, GYMEA is a sustainable venue on 113 acres of secluded, naturally undulating rainforest with stunning views of Wollumbin. Positioned right in the heart of Australia’s Green Cauldron, it’s a breathtaking landscape known as the creative and SPIRITUAL HEARTLAND of Australia.
