The five-day celebration runs from 18 -22 September 2025 where you’re invited to slow down, move with intention, and reconnect - with nature, with self, and with community. 

Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Esperance and Cape Le Grand National Park, the festival coincides with the region’s wildflower season, which is the perfect time to explore the area’s stunning trails and landscapes. 

Hiking and adventure specialists, Off the Beaten Track will be leading a series of six hikes suitable for all hiking levels. You can also join a guided bush tucker experience, sound bathing inside the cave at Frenchman Peak, workshops to help build your confidence on the trails, inclusive coastal walks, a tree walk and draw session and so much more.  

To explore the festival program and book yourself into this unique event, visit GROUNDED.
