Walk in the footsteps of our pioneers, discover unique and interesting works of art or enjoy a morning of foraging at a local market.
Lake Forbes
A destination in itself, Lake Forbes lures locals and visitors alike so be sure to pack the bike, canoe and fishing rods and, of course, that novel you never get a chance to read!
Leave your willpower at home because you simply won't be able to resist treating yourself to something special - a barista-prepared latte and freshly baked pastry, a new spring racing frock or that mouth-watering steak.
Incredible history
Meticulously restored vintage vehicles, lovingly renovated buildings and an historic streetscape combined to offer a glimpse into a bygone era and rural Australia two centuries ago. |
