The Karuna Sanctuary

The Karuna Sanctuary Katoomba is located in 374 acres of natural forest 1000 metres above sea level. The surrounding area is a habitat for Kangaroo families and native birds such as wattle birds and kookaburras. Within the grounds of the Karuna Sanctuary, there are scenic bush walking tracks. Enjoy walks that lead to a beautiful waterfall and dramatic cliff-top views of the Megalong Valley. 

The Sanctuary features a large main hall which can be used for many indoor fun activities such as table tennis. Near the hall is an outdoor playground that  features basketball hoops, climbing frames and swings. Not far from the hall is a tree-studded two acre paddock that will provide plenty of space for ball games and tug-of-war.

The Sanctuary has sleeping capacity for 100+ in both bunkroom style as well as an option for the unique experience of sleeping in renovated train carriages. Most of the other buildings are beautiful mud brick. There is a large bright and airy activity hall suitable for yoga, meditation and other indoor activities. A kitchen and large dining space, all set amongst pristine natural environment.
