Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley
Set in the World Heritage-listed Greater Blue Mountains region, Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley is a luxurious conservation retreat. Nestled amongst 7,000-acres of protected wilderness and surrounded by two national parks, the resort immerses guests in nature and re-invigorates the soul.
Occupying just one per cent of the total land area, 40 freestanding Federation-style villas showcase spectacular views, each with private swimming pools, double-sided fireplaces, and peaceful verandahs.
The Main Homestead features various dining settings including the Wolgan Dining Room; the Country Kitchen, the Valley Bar & Lounge and a walk-in wine cellar. Inspired by the natural environment, the food philosophy celebrates seasonal, organic produce sourced from regional farmers and vintners. The menu changes seasonally and many ingredients come from the resort's kitchen garden.
The resort's unique blend of native wildlife, dramatic landscapes and heritage, can be explored through a range of epic outdoor activities including hiking, four wheel driving, mountain biking and horse riding along hidden trails, sparkling creeks and epic ridgelines. Guests are also invited to get hands on with important conservation work.
For those seeking relaxation, the One&Only Spa is the perfect place to reconnect with yourself with a pampering spa treatment or outdoor yoga session. This is Australia at its finest.

Location Summary
Just 190 kilometres, or a three hour drive from Sydney in the Greater Blue Mountains of New South Wales, Emirates Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa is remarkably accessible, yet feels a world away. The Blue Mountain townships are renowned for their quaint antique and curio shops, whilst the area boasts of attractions such as the Zig-zag Railway, cable car, Three Sisters and Jenolan Caves. The Wolgan Valley is approximately 26 kilometres long, and varies in width from six or seven kilometres at its widest points before it narrows to a bottleneck of just one kilometre where the Wolgan River cuts a deep gorge through the sandstone. Tall, almost vertical cliffs, contrast with the gentle curve of the Valley floor and a private road branches off the Wolgan Road to follow the river through to the property. Emirates Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa is located at the Eastern end of the Valley, at the foot of Mount Wolgan and Donkey Mountain (major landmarks at 877 and 995 metres above sea level respectively). To ensure maximum privacy and seclusion, the resort is for exclusive use of our resident guests only. Outside or day visitors are not permitted.
