Boshack has now introduced fishing for their visitors. No large oceans                                                                                                    for the fish to get away just a 25 acre lake 90 minute drive from Perth.

The children can go with the farmer to feed the animals each day , look after the newborn joey and see how fresh vegetables can be grown easily with worms and fish poo.

Mother can sit by the lakes edge and read a book or visit the meditation area to relax.

BBQ’s available for your own cooking or book a Boshack BBQ meal.

Sit around the camp fire at night and enjoy your beer whilst the children have cooked marshmellows ( subject to weather conditions)

Other activities include a night time drive to see wild kangaroos and catching wild marron.

Experience the life our pioneers had. No electricity, no phones and Nature at its best.

Overseas schools visit and stay to reap the rewards of peace ,quiet and what Nature has to offer.

An Overseas Government study has established that the aggression and stress which is rising in the class room has been described as Nature deficiency syndrome and their children will be spending 3-4 days at Boshack to get back to Nature and what it has to offer.

Play stations are left in the bags , more fun is had exploring the bush, canoeing, feeding the animals, preparing for evening supper and cooking marshmallows over the nightly campfire.

In season assistance can be given in burning up the rubbish trees or catching yabbies for supper.

Hot water showers are available all the time by means of the old fashioned “Donkey” and all you need to do is put an extra log on after your shower. Watch the satellites or shooting stars or just the stars as you shower.

The worm Farm is in full swing in preparing the soil for the organic garden and the worms for the fish feed which in turn create the valuable fertilizer for the hydroponic garden which is getting close to completion.

Tours can be experienced of Aboriginal Dreamtime and didgeridoo playing with bush chocolates and witchetty grubs for morning tea, bushtucker of kangaroo, emu and crocodile can be tasted with bush sauces.

The animals are fed daily and if required you can go on a special animal feeding safari where you are in the cage looking out from within as the animals are fed their daily rations.

Bush walks take place to areas very seldom been to by man. We visit a filter lake that removes the salt from the water that then goes into a freshwater lake.

Camping within 5 metres of Lake Serene and being a part of the daily animal feeding gives the family the opportunity to give their children the “Back to the Farm” experience that many parents used to often do.

The lake is only 1.5 metres deep in the centre and about .5 metre deep at about 20 metres from shore.

You have the opportunity to do the tours if you have the time or the inclination.

Marshmellows over the fire at night and Pizza’s in the bush Pizza oven are a speciality. All meals are by means of BBQ or if you wish to cook something the Pizza oven and 20 banksia nuts is all you need to cook a 2 pound roast of lamb pork or chicken.

See the Worm Farm grow as it gets ready to feed the fish which will then supply the ingredients for a hydroponic veggie garden.

Boshack has a typical scene in reality of what Australian Bushfires can do. As of 14/8/08 everything was normal within one hour of midday 1% of Boshack area which surrounds the aboriginal dreamtime area was a blackened charred burnout.

This is a classic of the damage that can happen in such a short time with the Australian bushfire.The interesting development will be how the burnt area of paperbark trees or Melalucca bark or protection covering ( old time white baby diapers, used for cooking, used by aboriginals for painting on/ as protection on Mia Mia buildings/wrapping wounds for antiseptic use) is so resilient it will come back to life in a very short time with new shoots and growth happening.

The tour path hasnt changed and dreamtime still becomes the area for Outback stories, australian chocolates, didgeridoo playing. The story of the curlew bird and its bush mobile phone qualities with the bird still holding prime position in dreamtime.

Anyone who wishes to be a real Aussie can do so with consuming a witchetty grub in dreamtime as per normal. The worms are fresher than ever.

You also have the opportunity to see if you can get a didgeridoo tune or create other strange noises.

This is the area (once the greenery returns,soon) where relaxation starts to takeover the individual. With all the surrouding water and the greenery fresh air is being made and these areas in some countries become a health retreat because of the healing qualities of fresh air.Many comment how their body has slowed down after Dreamtime and the bushwalk.

This is nature at its best.

Once a booking has been confirmed we supply a google map and allowing two full days and 2 nights in the country we can give you a map of locations inspected by Boshack that we can recommend you visit. This is a new tour area and has just been used for group tours and is becoming very popular for Self Drive as well as groups especially with the price of fuel.

The journey covers the oldest to the newest wineries, lavender and Olive farms, wildlife parks, small animal parks, boutique breweries , organic wineries, free candy shop , pick your own oranges in season, Pinnacles ,Beaches , Tree Top Walk , El Caballo Blanco (Andulusian dancing horses ) and some amazing drives all within 100k as the crow flies from Perth. Hopefully coming on soon Wild Kangaroo feeding.

Winter –with only one third the rainfall Perth has Boshack is mostly sunshine, so if it is raining in Perth and you want some sunshine and a nice country drive head to Boshack. 95% of the days are 23 degrees , sunshine.

Summer– we have about 10 really hot days a year , however one day i remember we had 45 children on 45 degrees this was one of our hottest tour days and with the water at Boshack regular sprays when travellling from one location to another and bottles of water spray turned the day into a fun day without a complaint about the hot day at Boshack.

Location– is such that we are not to far North for the summer hot and not to far South for the winter cold. So to see how the old timers lived their lifestyle without power and mod cons makes Boshack and ideal all weather and all year round location.
