Southern
Wonders - Wine and Forest Experience
5
Days and 4 Nights
Day
1 Perth to Margaret River
The
next 5 days are designed so you can combine the fruits of
one of the most sought after wine regions in the world and
the unique Karri and Jarrah forests of Western Australia.
Rivaling France and California as a premium wine growing region,
the area known as Margaret River is set against a backdrop
of rugged coastline, pristine beaches, pounding surf and towering
forests.Today’s destination is Margaret River, which sits
in the middle of the wine region and is a good base from which
to visit several wineries as well as the spectacular beaches
of Yallingup and Prevelly. Suggested overnight stay - Quest
Margaret River.
Day
2 Margaret River
As
most of the wineries do not open until 10am, we suggest an
early morning swim or walk along the shore. The short drive
out to either Eagle Bay or Meelup is well worth the effort.
As you work your way through the back country lanes past the
various wineries and their and their rolling hills covered
with grapes, follow the signs to any one of the approximately
50 wineries in the region. All offer tastings and some will
ship your purchases home for you. Plan your day based the
particular blends that suit your palate or just follow your
instincts, you can’t get lost. For the evenings, take advantage
of local chefs who combine the best ingredients from the area
to offer superb food to compliment the local vintage. Suggested
overnight stay - Quest Margaret River.
Day
3 Margaret River to Karri Valley Resort
You
are now in the heart of this remarkable wine-growing region
with wineries too numerous to mention. As you head towards
Pemberton, make your lunch stop at one of the many wineries
that offer fine dining. As you leave the rolling vineyards
behind you will notice the increase in the dramatic size and
grandeur of the Karri and Jarrah Trees.There are many craft
shops along the way to sample th e
local crafts. Suggested overnight stay - Karri Valley Resort.
Day
4 Karri Valley Resort
Awake
to the sounds of birds and the gentle lapping of water against
your doorstep. You are deep in the forest and the many walking
trails are awaiting for you. A walk to Beedelup Falls is a
great way to start the day. Later try trout fishing, horse
back riding or a gentle canoe trip across the lake. The fresh
air, no matter what the time of year, is some of the freshest
you can ever experience. The Resort is also a great base from
which to experience the Pemberton region.The Tree Top Walk
is only a little over an hour’s drive away and well worth
the scenic drive to experience this world famous attraction.The
Resort has a beautiful lakeside restaurant which is a magic
setting for your farewell dinner to this beautiful part of
the world. Suggested overnight stay - Karri Valley Resort.
Day
5 Karri Valley Resort to Perth
As
you make your way north back to Perth, there are several opportunities
to sample the local produce that are also making these regions
famous. Head inland through Harvey and Pinjarra and marvel
at the green rolling hills and variety of local fruit and
vegetables. Now that you have been touched by the natural
beauty of the south west of Western Australia and the wines
it has to offer, you will count the days until you can return.
