SEE & DO
Explore Victoria’s High Country…

BEECHWORTH
Beechworth represents the history of gold mining in Victoria, but it’s also closely associated with Ned Kelly and his gang. It has museums commemorating both of these links, as well as galleries and an array of speciality stores and providores.

GLENROWAN
Needing no introduction as the site of Ned Kelly’s last stand, Glenrowan deserves equal fame for its full-bodied reds, fragrant whites and delicious fortified wines. The sweeping views from the Warby Ranges over Lake Mokoan are a rich reward for bushwalkers and birdwatchers.

RUTHERGLEN
A mere half hour’s drive from Wangaratta, Rutherglen is the hub of Australia’s oldest wine-growing region. Another old gold-rush town, Rutherglen’s determination to preserve its heritage makes it a richly rewarding destination for visitors.

MILAWA GOURMET REGION
It’s a bold town that claims the title “Gourmet Region”, but Milawa more than lives up to its promise. Brown Brothers have their famous Epicurean Centre, and a cluster of nearby family owned businesses produce cheese, olives, mustard and, of course, wine. Milawa Gourmet Region is right on Wangaratta’s doorstep.

KING VALLEY
King Valley, just half an hour from Wangaratta, has a long history of Chinese and Italian migration, but more recently, it’s the vines brought from Italy that have earned it the moniker “a little slice of Italy”.

WINTON WETLANDS
The largest wetlands restoration project in the Southern Hemisphere, the Winton Wetlands brings people, groups and communities together to renew themselves, the landscape and their passion for the great outdoors. Located in north east Victoria, the site features 3,800 Ha of wetlands surrounded by over 4,950Ha of redgum and box grassy woodland and is home to a huge variety of flora and fauna, including over 180 species of birds.
