The NSW Government's tourism and major events agency Destination NSW has produced the new collection of images and videos to highlight the rich diversity of experiences on offer in Orange, as well as Carcoar, Canowindra and Molong.
The annual Black Tie and Gumboot Truffle Hunt features at the core of the content package, where guests dress-up and head out searching for truffles before retiring to the underground wine cellar for a five-course truffle degustation dinner.
Minister for Tourism Stuart Ayres said it is important to showcase the unique experiences on offer right across NSW.
“Tourism is fundamental to rural and regional NSW, contributing $19.5 billion to the NSW economy and directly employing more than 90,000 people,” Mr Ayres said.
“The NSW Government is determined to support these communities and ensure every corner of NSW gets its fair share of the record tourist dollars and investment coming into our State.
“Content packages like this one are a valuable way of highlighting just how much there is to explore within the State's own backyard. If you hop in a car from Sydney, you can experience an entirely new place within a matter of hours.”
Destination NSW CEO Sandra Chipchase said the new content package would make anyone feel compelled to escape to the NSW Central West.
“This is the perfect time to plan a weekend getaway to Orange and its surrounding townships, which really thrive in Winter,” Ms Chipchase said.
“This part of NSW has so much to offer between fresh local produce and aromatic wines, one-of-a-kind boutiques and quaint cafes, vibrant town centres and rolling green hills. I encourage everyone to book in their trip to the NSW Central West.”
Experiences and attractions highlighted in the new content package include:
