West Wimmera Secrets Pub Trail
Enjoy a picturesque and interesting trip west from Melbourne to South Australia via the Glenelg and Wimmera Highways through Ballarat, Skipton, Casterton, Edenhope and Naracoorte.
This trail is aimed at providing tourists with a relaxing, quiet, yet picturesque alternative when travelling from Melbourne towards S.A. It is an ideal way to commence your journey if you are destined for regions North or West of Adelaide. It avoids a lot of the main commercial trucking routes and traffic that pour along the Western Highway.
Taking you not much more than 60kms longer via the Glenelg Highway, you will be rewarded with views of the lower Grampians area around Mt Abrupt and Mt Sturgeon at Dunkeld. The opportunity will allow you to visit notable points of interest like the Ansett Pioneer Air Museum at Hamilton, first-class boutique chocolate manufacturing at Coleraine, and mix with the locals of Casterton - home of the Australian Kelpie!
Emerging at the Wimmera Highway, you can visit Victoria's oldest inland township of Harrow, and then head off towards the Coonawarra wine area via Edenhope situated close to the VIC/SA border, along with Naracoorte, famous for its local caves.
From Naracoorte, you can head north and take a shortcut through to Port Augusta through the Barossa wine region. Refer to Barossa Byways Pubtrail for that route.
And..... there's plenty of fine old Aussie Pubs to explore along the way.
Happy Pub trailing in Victoria!
