 Candlebark Farm

 

Candlebark farm is a CAV accredited campsite nestled on 100 acres of the treed foothills of the Yarra Ranges overlooking the beautiful Yarra Valley. We provides a range of outdoor experiences which help to develop confidence and a caring, supportive attitude among campers that can flow on to day-to-day activities. It e

nables campers to see their leaders in a different light and improves this relationship. By providing a location away from the home and school, it helps to develop independence. It provides for most community groups needing camp, conference, or rehearsal facilities.
