About this retreat

Set on 500 acres in the Southern Highlands, about an hour south of Sydney, The Hermitage is a Christian retreat centre operated by the Marist Brothers. Rooted in the spirituality of founder Marcellin Champagnat, the centre offers both private individual retreats and organised group retreats throughout the year. The atmosphere is deliberately simple and unpretentious, designed to support prayer, silence, and deep personal reflection. It suits individuals seeking a quiet space away from daily distractions, as well as groups looking for a structured spiritual experience. A tree-planting initiative reflects a commitment to environmental stewardship. The Hermitage welcomes people of all backgrounds seeking meaningful time with God.
